I think first if you know which medications can cause this side effect, you can look at each medication and find out the percentage of people that develop Tardive Dyskinesia.
It might be considered one of the adverse side effects.
I believe some of the anti psychotics can do this.
Good Luck on your research.

Tardive dyskinesia is serious side effect of long-term use of drugs called neuroleptics. The most commonly used neuroleptics are older anti-psychotic drugs, including haloperidol, trifluoperazine, or fluphenazine. Tardive dyskinesia is a disorder that causes involuntary movements (especially of the lower face).
