Question:

I get a low dosage shot of haldol Twice a week. Will this hurt me physically in the long run?

I get info from reading , but It is all so confusing to me.


Answers:

No, it shouldn't harm you, although all anti-psychotics have various risks and some are more serious than others. Report any side effects you get to the doctor immediately and you should be okay.

I used Haldol about a year and withdrawing from it was really brutal. It is one medicine I wouldn't recommend to anyone. The woman down in Texas who drowned her kids was withdrawing from Haldol when she committed her crime. Also the woman in California who threw her kids into the ocean and killed them was withdrawing from it. My advice... be very careful with it and never skip a dose because Haldol withdrawal is an absolute nightmare. If you ever do go off it you will need a medicine like Stelazine to control the psychosis..
