2.
How does INGREZZA work in my body?
Because INGREZZA was designed for TD, it is believed to work directly in the region of the brain that causes uncontrollable movements.
TD is likely caused by prolonged use of certain medications that can cause irregular dopamine signaling in the brain, and INGREZZA is believed to reduce this signaling.

In 79 people taking the recommended INGREZZA dose of 80 mg, uncontrollable movements were reduced by ~30% at 6 weeks.
