User Medicine Opinions for haldol Decanoate 100

Overall: Low adverse Reactions Healing Power: No dependency problems: Cost-Benefit: Sex: M Age: 22 Location: Philadelphia, PA Time Taken: 6 days Reason: Psychosis Date: 7 July 2009 Side Effects Muscles spasm, throat and tongue getting numb. Unfortunately that is the case, if you have overdosed on Haldol. Legs keep trembling, muscles spasm and it can last for long time too. It is a very weird feeling because you can miss work like that. You cannot control the car nor yourself. Best treatment is either Benadryl or Congentin drugs which relieve some of those symptoms but they can always come back anytime. Additional Thoughts
