ABSTRACT
This is a report of 3 cases of parkinsonism with long term administration of lamivudine. The clinic features were mask like faces, shuffling gait, lethargy and reduced automatic movement. After stopping use of lamivudine and treatment of anticholingeric drugs, the symptoms and signs of all cases were ameliorated. The possibilities of Wilson’s disease and other secondary parkinsonisms were excluded. The parkinsonism was attributed to complications from lamivudine. Lamivudine associated parkinsonism has not been reported previously in the medical literature.
