Yes, missing tic medications for 3 days may contribute to a rebound/worsening of tics in some patients, especially if the medication was helping suppress symptoms. However, a sudden increase in tics is more commonly related to the natural waxing and waning course of tic disorders, stress, anxiety, excitement, sleep deprivation, illness, or other environmental factors.
In this case:
* The worsening may be due to natural fluctuation of the disorder.
* Abrupt interruption of medication could have played a role.
* The medications themselves are unlikely to permanently worsen tics.
* Continue follow-up with the treating psychiatrist/neurologist and monitor response to the new treatment (Sizodon + Arkamin).
If severe new movements, rigidity, fever, or marked behavioral changes occur, seek urgent medical review.
