[|Human|] Hi , My Father had been on many antidepressant and other meds to treat mental illness over the past six years. He became ill with some form of infection thispast december and could not swallow , he could not take his regular medication, trazadone and seroquel . He was in our local hospital, by the time i got there they had started him on Haldol. I could not believe the shape he was in. Extreme Delirium and had to placed in restraints to prevent him from hurting himself. On the forth day he passed away. The hospital agve him massive amounts of Haldol, large amounts of lorazepam and morphine in order to do a C T scan. My question is about my concern over the drug Haldol. I have had people say that his age and other drugs he had been on, Haldol was not the drug to be used. My Father had just turned seventy three years of age. Kind Regards, Sherry
[|AI|]  Hi there ~ What has happened.  I regret and am sorry about your fathers' loss.  I think it is a time to grieve rather than think about what could have been done differently.  There are varied opinions on how an agitated patient should be treated to get a proper CT scan done.  However, I hope that your fathers' death was a peaceful one. I hope you are at peace, and please try not to dwell over the situation. Take care and have a lovely day !
