Reviews for Haldol to treat ICU Agitation
| Review by Anonymous: | |||||
My father (now deceased) had a tendency to become agitated when confined to ICU for more than a couple of days. He was prescribed Haldol during one such stay. The medicine had a very negative effect; my father became aggressive. One morning I walked in to find that the staff had strapped his hands to the bed overnight! I complained (loudly) to another doctor and my father was taken off Haldol and moved to a private room. Almost immediately he became the sweet, even-tempered man that I always knew. I tried to keep my dad out of ICU after that.

Helps with anxiety and racing thoughts. Calms my mood down when angry and upset. Side effect is weight gain and being tired.
