I dont know..when it first hit the scene, there was hopes that it could be an "atypical antipsychotic," b/c it had some neuroleptic-like effects (ex: taming) in rodents. Didn't pan out. In early studies, they noticed an akathisia-like syndrome (which I experienced @ 45mgs/day). There weren't any cases of TD noted early on, but I seem to recall reading about a couple cases linked to buspirone (no neuroleptics were used in those cases).
