Summary

Haloperidol (Haldol) is a traditional antipsychotic with some very distinct guidelines that could show up on your next exam or with your next combative, delirious patient. In this podcast episode, I’ll talk you through: * What Haldol is used for in the clinical setting * The multiple ways Haldol can be given (and how we’re going to give it for acute agitation in the hospital) * THE most important thing you need to know before you give Haldol and what to monitor afterwards. * The very dangerous thing that could happen to your patient with Haldol administration * Monitoring parameters * Common side effects of Haldol Plus, I’m sharing a sneak peak into my Pharmacology course and an acronym that can help you focus your studying when learning new medications.
