TL;DR
Investigation of the incidence of tardive dyskinesia in elderly individuals beginning treatment with antipsychotic drugs found psychiatric (as opposed to organic) diagnosis and presence of extrapyramidal signs early in treatment were associated with increased tardiv dyskine vulnerability.
Abstract
The incidence of neuroleptic-induced dyskinesia was 31% (95% confidence interval, 20%, 42%) after 43 weeks of cumulative neuroleptic treatment. Psychiatric (as opposed to organic) diagnosis and presence of extrapyramidal signs early in treatment were associated with increased tardive dyskinesia vulnerability.

Several age-related changes of catecholamine metabolism in senescent C57B1/6J male mice were observed, including reduced levels of striatal dopamine and slowed catabolism of total norepinephrine in the hypothalamus and of total dopamine in the striatum.

315 Citations1980James M. Smith
Strong linear correlations between ages and both the prevalences and severity of TD are found, which support caution in the prolonged use of neuroleptics in patients older than age 50 years but encourage optimism for eventual spontaneous remission of TD in young adults.

The conclusion is drawn that prolonged administration of psychopharmaca, which cause neurological side effects, carries the risk of lesion of the central nervous system with irreversible dyskinesia, especially in elderly patients and patients with organic brain diseases.

Logistic regression analyses revealed a large effect of age on tardive dyskinesia prevalence and an interaction of age with sex, and among younger subjects, men had higher rates; among subjects over age 40, rates were higher for women.
