A Question on Haloperidol?
Question by Ryan: A question on Haloperidol?
I have just been put on Haloperidol for Opioid withdrawal. Is it sedating/tranquilizing? Does it make you drowsy/sleepy? What type of side effects does it have: serious and non-serious? Is it like Chlorpromazine or Trifluoperazine? What are your individual experiences with this drug? What does it do to your mood? Does it slow you down? How powerful is it? Does it mess with your head? I have been prescribed 5mg three times a day. I am currently using 600mg of Codeine Phosphate a day. I’ve also used Mophine (by the needle and by tablet), Oxycontin, Buprenorphine, Fentanyl, Methadone, Doloxene and Tramal. But I’m not on that stuff now, just the Codeine. I’ve been on 600mg a day for 2 years. Am I to expect hallucinations coming off the Opiate? Please tell me YOUR personal experiences, aswell as experiences of other people that you know of (family/friends/associates/aquaintances.etc. I need as much information as possible.
I’m looking for heavy sedation and tranquilization. Will I get this by using this drug? Any information from any source will be helpful. I have some benzodiazepines to help me too. Valium, Ativan, and Clonazepam. Tomorrow I will be getting some Xanax and Bromazepam. So please, anyone/anybody that can give me any insight into Haloperidol, come forward and share your knowledge with me. Many thanks.

I have never come off it, so i can’t give you personal experiences, but Haloperidol will definitely sedate/tranquilize you. I hope it helps. Good luck.

Medication depletes (takes away) nutrition and side effects you get from medication is the actual nutritional deficiencies that the medicines are depleting you of! So, once you have a “side effect” or also known as a ‘nutritional deficiency’ then google what nutritional deficiency it might be in. For instance, if suddenly you’re experiencing hair loss, google “hair loss nutritional deficiency”… or if you’re experiencing insomnia, google: “insomnia nutritional deficiency” and you should be able to find out a deficiency that’s associated with your symptoms/side effect.
PS: you can cure any health/emotional problem with the right nutrition! (personal experience and I know people who’ve cured their depression with the B-vitamis, iron, zinc, copper and other people who’ve cured their cancer with vitamin B17 and eating a 80-10-10 diet, so I for sure know it’s possible!)
Get your nutrient levels checked out (for the nutrients that I’ve listed, in particular) by the doctor/nurse!! they will take a blood test to see if you’re low in any of them.
