Summary
Tetrabenazine has been shown to improve gating of abnormal visual stimuli and improve
postural stability in Huntington disease (HD) patients as measured by computerized dynamic
posturography testing. This study aims to elucidate whether partial dopaminergic depletion
via low dose tetrabenazine has a similar effect on masking out of abnormal visual stimuli on
the Stroop interference test.
