I got back pains after taking a haldol (haloperidol) shot that last a month, and i was wondering if they will go away after the month?

Haldol (haloperidol) is an: antipsychotic, than if injected, can have big side effects. One of them is to alter posture by causing muscles to lose flexibility and to contract too much. Your posture can suffer and you might feel the sensation of listing to one side or another or just being less flexible. All of these muscle side effects can cause you to have muscles aches anywhere in the body.
