MECHANISM OF ACTION
• Haloperidol can interact with several medications, potentially leading to adverse effects
or alterations in therapeutic response. Here are some notable drug interactions
involving haloperidol:
• Central Nervous System (CNS) Depressants: Concurrent use of haloperidol with other
CNS depressants, such as benzodiazepines, opioids, or alcohol, may potentiate sedation
and respiratory depression. Caution is advised when combining these medications, and
dosage adjustments may be necessary to minimize the risk of excessive sedation or
respiratory depression.
