Haldol is a "Heavy Tranquilizer", usually given to people suffering Schizophrenia or a psychotic episode. It is intended to slow down imagination/creativity areas of the brain, but impairs the entire brain in doing so.
Compared to "Mild Sedatives" such as valium, xanax, etc. Haldol is about 10-50 times more powerful, but doesn't slow down the body as much as the brain, leading to shakes and poor muscle/motor control aka "Haldol Shuffle". Good answer!. I'd like to add that Haldol (or haloperidol) is also used to treat Tourette's Syndrome. And Xanax (alprazolam) is more of an anti-anxietal than a tranquilizer (I'll leave you to guess how someone somewhere actually made that distinction).
Haldol Decanoate is for use in adults only and has been formulated to provide one month's therapy for most patients following a single deep intramuscular injection in the gluteal region. Haldol Decanoate should be administered deep intramuscularly with a 2 - 2.5 inch needle of at least 21 gauge. Haldol Decanoate should not be administered intravenously.
Routine administration of volumes greater than 3 ml at any one injection site is not recommended as larger volumes of injection are uncomfortable for the patient.
Since individual response to neuroleptic drugs is variable, dosage should be individually determined and is best initiated and titrated under close clinical supervision.
The size of the initial dose will depend on both the severity of the symptomatology and the amount of oral medication required to maintain the patient before starting depot treatment.
