📋Overview
Valbenazine is a medication that affects certain chemicals in the brain involved in movement control. It is primarily associated with the management of tardive dyskinesia, a condition characterized by involuntary, repetitive body movements. The drug works by modulating the activity of vesicular monoamine transporters, which play a role in regulating neurotransmitter levels. Valbenazine is used in clinical settings to help address movement disorders linked to long-term use of certain psychiatric medications.
