I’m just curious, and I don’t feel like looking it up. I don’t think they would have a lot of information on it anyways.

Considering that first APs were developed in 1950’s haloperidol is still a benchmark med for today, even I use haloperidol today

Yes
I use it for sleep. 25 or 50 mg before sleep. it doesn’t have hungover after waking up.
I like it.
ask you pd to prescribe it for sleep aid if you like. Here in Iran I buy it over the counter.

They give you only 10 pills, but enough for a week.

Pretty primitive. Insulin and shock at the beginning of the decade. The first typical drug was made by midway. It was thorazine. Most patients were in asylums.

I think they put an ice pick up your nose.
