Haloperidol (brand name Haldol) is a drug from the group of conventional high-potent antipsychotics. It is primarily used in the case of the most severe positive symptoms of schizophrenia (waxing, hallucinations, i-storting, etc.). Especially when other compatible alternatives showed no effect.
Haloperidol is a so-called neuroleptic. These are means that intervene in brain chemistry (more precisely: dopamine metabolism) and are intended to suppress or mitigate extreme feelings. They act particularly antipsychotic, for example against delusions, but also against general extreme eruptions.
In the therapy of anorexia, after which you asked, Haloperidol can be used low dosed. It ensures that a body schema disorder is mitigated, wants to say: someone who feels extremely fat, although he is already far too thin, perceives this distortion less, which helps in therapy
Haloperidol is a neuroleptic which is used, inter alia, in schizophrenia.
Anorexia too?
No. This is a behavioral disorder / eating disorder.
Ask your doctor.
Then why do I get it?
