Does an Anti Psychotic (Such as Haloperidol) and an Anti-Depressant (Such as Sertraline) Mix well together. I am on both of them and since they combined them I have had severe headaches, and trouble thinking and memory problems. I was wanting to see what others say before I complain to my Doctor and jump to conclusions.

and it made me get uncontollable movements in my mouth and jaw and I can't stop moving my head around. I feel horrible and It is making me unable to sleep and giving me a bad headache and vomiting. My legs won't stop moving either and I feel stiff and rigid all over it hurts. What should I do. Is this malpractice from my doctor cause I don't think I really need this medicine anyways? The psychiatrist gave it to me for depression/sadness and anxiety and trouble sleeping but it did the opposite

I am taking lithium 750 mg/day (serum concentration 0.6 mmol Li+/L). Yesterday my doctor prescribed me haloperidol oral solution - 5 drops a day. There are discussions around neurotoxicity and permanent brain damage as a result of this combination all over the Web. I was so frightened last night that I did not take haloperidol. Is anyone taking this combination safely? How dangerous is it?

i have been with with my boyfriend 3 years and we moved in together 2 months ago and i found packet of pills prescribed for my boyfriend in the house which said haloperidol it says take 10mg twice a day so he is on 20mg a day but he wont really tell me what there for he says they are just painkillers but when i researched on the internet it says there anti-schizophrenic pills is he using haloperidol as painkillers or for something else can you use haloperidol for pain Relief Hello to everybody

seroquel but she had a bad reaction. Now she is on Haloperidol .5 mg 3 pd, Trazodone 50 mg pd and Lorazepam 1 mg as needed, and Lexapro 10 mg pd. She does have hallucinations and delusions, but is this too much?

I'm currently on Abilify 15mg and Trazodone 50mg. However, I have been experiencing episodes of severe anger and have so far broken my guitar, smashed my phone, and punched a wall several times and now my hand is all swollen and probably fractured. My doctor and I discussed Haldol if Abilify wasn't working well (been on it for about 33 days now), and I just want to know if Haldol is more effective at treating agitation. If not, what medications are known to be good for this? I've tried Tho

I m taking this medicine for 2 weeks and now my psychiatrist is telling me to take it for next 2 months. Is there any long term side effects of this medicine which are impossible to treat

From the age of 21, I have been medicated with anti-psychotics. Namely, Risperdal, Olanzapine, Quetiapine, Invega, Solian , Pericyazine, Trifluoperazine, Chlorpromazine: and I'm currently on Haloperidol. Someone asked me once what would happen if I came off all my drugs. I experimented. One week clean, I tried to go to sleep, and the walls felt like they were dirty dank concrete, covered with moss (Like in a dungeon). Then I heard a voice in my head, either the Devil or a demon. I was confused

I'm on Haldol, but I can't sleep properly. So, I went to a doc to get some Seroquel. But I didn't ask him about interactions. Someone help...

Are there any interactions bewteen Haloperidol (Haldol) and Quetiapine (Seroquel)? Can too much Quetiapine make you agitated? Can Clonazepam (Klonopin) or Valium (Diazepam) treat Restless legs Syndrome? What drug could treat anti-psychotic induced restless legs? Can Haldol and Seroquel assist with alcohol and Opioid withdrawal? What drugs, apart from Benzatropine, can stop dystonic reactions?

I've just started taking Serenace, 5mg, three times a day. Last night my dad took too many pills and consumed too much alcohol, so I didn't get to sleep until 5am. Then I was up at 7am. 2 hours sleep is not enogh for me. I need at least 6. Is it the stress and tension of making sure my dad didn't fall over and split his head open that I couldn't sleep, or is is the haldol? Bearing in mind, this is my third day in with this drug. Will 2mg of Clonazepam help me sleep? They say that Haldol is us

I am on the following: Haloperidol: 5mg, three times a day Benzatropine: 2mg a day Clonidine: 100mcg twice a day Valium: 5mg twice a day Ativan: 2,5mg twice a day Clonazepam: 2mg once a day Lexapro: 40mg once a day Panadeine Forte: 210mg Codeine, twice a day Amoxycillin 1000mg, twice a day (Bacterial infection) Olmetec: 20/12.5mg, once a day for high blood pressure. I am on a carefully planned out Opioid Withdrawal program. I started it yesterday, all was fine. But today, 2 hours after takin

Risperidone, Olanzapine, Quetiapine, Paliperidone, Solian, Largactil, Stelazine, Pericyazine, or Haloperidol? Lets imagine, that you give a patient (in tablet form) the maximum dose of each of these medications, in one shot. Which would be the most sedating, most tranquilizing, most turn-you-into-a-zombie- drug? I've been on them all, and I say its a toss up between Largactil and Seroquel. What do you think? I need something highly potent to dull my senses and work against both the positive an

I am on Haloperidol, 5mg, three times a day. My doctor also gave me some Benzatropine to stop Extra Pyramidal Side Effects. It works, but it gives me shocking headaches and severe pain behind the eyes, and sometimes I need to take Oxycontin to get rid of all the pain. Someone on here mentioned a drug called "Sinemet". Can this drug stop dystonias with causing so much pain? All replies will be appreciated. One more thing: I would like as many people as possible to share their experiences of il

I take Benzatropine to stop Haloperidol-induced dystonias. But the Benzatropine gives me terrible headaches and severe pain behind the eyes. I had my eyes checked for glaucoma- all clear. I don't want to keep taking analgesics for the pain, I want to know why I am in pain, and how to get rid of it. Is there another drug I can take to stop dystonias? Please let me know.

But the Benzatropine gives me terrible headaches and severe pain behind the eyes. I had my eyes tested for glaucoma- they are fine. Are there any other drugs that can stop dystonias that are not anti-cholinergics? This is only a temporary situation. I'm only on Haloperidol and Benzatropine for 7-8 days. I am on this fo

I have been addicted to Codeine Phosphate for 2 years, taking up to 600mg a day. I have organised a plan to come off it. I am going to gradually taper it down, using the following medications: Diazepam, Lorazepam, Clonazepam, Quetiapine, Clonidine, Haloperidol and Benzatropine. How do you think I will go? Is this plan safe? By the way, is Haloperidol (Serenace) sedating/tranquilizing? Will it turn me into a zombie? How potent is it? Can it be used in opioid withdrawal? All replies will be app

I now know that Haloperidol has sedative properties. I also know that Diazepam and Clonazepam can help with agitation. I already have 25 5mg Diazepams and 25 0.5 Clonazepams. I also have 25 2.5 Lorazepams. But, can these benzodiazepines stop a dystonic reaction from forming? Or what about Levodopa, Baclofen or Diphenhydramine? Why does Benzatropine (Benztrop) and Benzhexol (Artane) cause pain behind the eyes? Is it serious? Or, should I just take some Panadeine Forte? In time, will the pain b

I have had an adverse drug reaction to Haloperidol. All my limbs went stiff and my eyes rolled back in my head. I have been told that there is a drug to reverse this: Benzatropine.

Are there any other drugs that can stop dystonic reactions apart from the anti-cholinergics? If so, please let me know. Cheers. Also, I would like to know if

Nothing more to add. I've basically said it all.

Hi. My brother is seventeen. He was diagnosed Schizophrenic when he was fifteen. I can't really imagine how hard it's been for him. But anyway, he's been taking Haldol (Haloperidol) for quite a while now. The Doctors seemed to think it was doing him good. On Sunday night my Mum found him out cold in his room. So he had seemingly deliberately overdosed as a suicide attempt. They also reckon he'd taken a few sleeping pills the same time. He was immediatley taken to hospital and his stomach was p

Whenever I take a strong antipsychotic medication, most notably olanzapine (which had to be discontinued) or, the safer mix of lorazepam and haloperidol, I cry like a baby for no clear reason. This is a side effect that bugs me. Why, when the dosage is strong, do I usually wind up crying? Thanks in advance for your help, guys?

I have paranoid schizophrenia and I take 20mg Haloperidol a day, both of these factors evidently lower my ability to concentrate.

So I need to impr
