They use Haldol to torture mental patients in Russia. The drug ought to be banned.

They give it to acutely psychotic people in Sweden. It does the job as a sedative.

It does a good job of keeping patients docile, but I don’t think it does them much good. A lot of undesirable things go with it - loss of creativity, loss of self worth, loss of motivation, et. al.
