Paula mentions the danger of malignant neuroleptic syndrome.

How scared of this should we be? How likely are we to get it if we miss a dose? Does anyone have any data?

The best I could find was cause of death statistics for UK for 2005

http://www.statistics.gov.uk/downloa..._No32_2005.pdf

I don't know how accurate this is, but it reports 4177 deaths from Parkinson's Disease and 5 from malignant neuroleptic syndrome.
