Tardive dyskinesia is a side effect of some older antipsychotics and typically presents as uncontrolled movements of the face, tongue, arms, legs, etc. It is sometimes irreversible. None of the meds you are on are in the class that typically causes it. Medications like Stelazine, Haldol, Thorazine...these are the older antipsychotics and are not widely used today.
