Tardive dyskinesia is a movement disorder caused by long-term use of some medications, especially antipsychotics. It causes involuntary movements and twitches, which can be difficult or impossible to control, and patients may be unable to stop moving. Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by tremors, rigidity, and bradykinesia, but not typically hyperkinesia or uncontrollable movement. Huntington's disease is a genetic disorder that affects the brain and causes uncontrollable movements, but it is not commonly associated with medication-induced dyskinesia. Paroxysmal dyskinesia and athetosis are also movement disorders, but they do not necessarily involve an inability to stop moving, and they are not typically associated with medication use.
