Summary

This study tests whether valbenazine can reduce involuntary muscle movements (tardive dyskinesia) in adults who still have symptoms while taking or after stopping another similar drug. About 50 people with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or major depression will take valbenazine capsules for 24 weeks. Doctors and patients will report changes in movement severity and quality of life.
