I seem to recall reading that some cases of Parkinsonism on the older drugs (especially high doses) didn't reverse upon discontinuation. I guess massive doses of Haldol and/or Thorazine can rip your dopamine receptors a new one.
I don't think that's such a big deal with the atypicals or lower doses of the conventional neuroleptics. TD and other tardive syndromes are a much bigger concern.
