Depression: haldol (haloperidol) an effective treatment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Haldol (haloperidol): is not an antidepressant medication. Hadol could be considered if an individual had a psychotic depression or possible a schizoaffective disorder with depression. In those situations - it would not normally be used for monotherapy. Take care.
