Initially, I.M. dosage shouldn't exceed 100 mg. If conversion requires dosage above 100 mg, give balance in 3 to 7 days. Maintenance dosage is 10 to 15 times the previous daily P.O. dosage, depending on response. ➣ Psychotic disorders Children ages 3 to 12 or weighing 15 to 40 kg (33 to 88 lb): 0.05 to 0.15 mg/kg/day P.O. in two or three divided doses.

Administration• Be aware that torsades de pointes and QT interval prolongation have occurred in patients receiving haloperidol, especially when drug is given I.V. or in doses higher than recommended. Haloperidol isn't approved for I.V. use. See Don't give decanoate form I.V. • Administer decanoate form by deep I.M. injection using 21G needle. Two injections may be necessary; maximum volume shouldn't exceed 3 ml. • Know that recommended interval between I.M. injections is 4 weeks. • Dilute oral concentrate in water, soda, or juice (orange, apple, tomato) immediately before administering. • Be aware that patient should be switched from parenteral form to oral form as soon as possible. • Know that parenteral form is not recommended in children. ![]() Adverse reactionsCNS: confusion, drowsiness, restlessness, extrapyramidal reactions, sedation, lethargy, insomnia, vertigo, tardive dyskinesia, seizures, neuroleptic malignant syndrome CV: hypotension, hypertension, tachycardia, ECG changes, torsades de pointes (with I.V. use) EENT: blurred vision, dry eyes GI: constipation, ileus, dry mouth, anorexia GU: urinary retention, menstrual irregularities, gynecomastia, priapism Hematologic: anemia, leukocytosis, leukopenia Hepatic: jaundice, drug-induced hepatitis Metabolic: galactorrhea Respiratory: dyspnea, respiratory depression, bronchospasm, laryngospasm Skin: diaphoresis, photosensitivity, rash Other: hyperpyrexia, hypersensitivity reactions InteractionsDrug-drug. Antidepressants, antihistamines, atropine, disopyramide, phenothiazines, quinidine, other anticholinergics: additive anticholinergic effects Antihypertensives, nitrates: additive hypotension CNS depressants (including antihistamines, opioid analgesics, sedative-hypnotics): additive CNS depression Epinephrine: severe hypotension and tachycardia Levodopa, pergolide: decreased therapeutic effects of haloperidol Lithium: acute encephalopathic syndrome Methyldopa: dementia Rifampin: decreased haloperidol plasma level Drug-diagnostic tests. Alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, thyroid function tests: increased values Arterial blood gases, bicarbonate: altered values White blood cells: increased or decreased count Drug-herbs. Angel's trumpet, jimsonweed, scopolia: antagonism of cholinergic effects Chamomile, hops, kava, skullcap, valerian: increased CNS depression Nutmeg: reduced haloperidol efficacy Drug-behaviors. Acute alcohol ingestion: additive hypotension Patient monitoringSee Monitor CNS status closely, especially for seizures and neuroleptic malignant syndrome (shown by extrapyramidal symptoms, hyperthermia, and autonomic disturbances). See Monitor cardiovascular status, particularly for ECG changes, blood pressure changes, torsades de pointes, and atypical rapid ventricular tachycardia, which may progress to ventricular fibrillation (with I.V. use). • Assess respiratory status. • Monitor liver function test results and CBC with white cell differential. • With prolonged use, assess for tardive dyskinesia (which may occur months or even years after starting drug). Patient teaching• Tell patient to dilute oral concentrate with water, cola, or juice immediately before taking. See Instruct patient to immediately report signs or symptoms of serious adverse reactions, such as unusual weakness, yellowing of skin or eyes, difficulty breathing, or symptoms of neuroleptic malignant syndrome (such as fever, muscle pain or rigidity, rapid or irregular pulse, increased sweating, change in urination pattern, or decreased mental acuity). • Advise patient to minimize GI upset by eating frequent, small servings of food and drinking adequate fluids. • As appropriate, review all other significant and life-threatening adverse reactions and interactions, especially those related to the drugs, tests, herbs, and behaviors mentioned above.
