Quick‑reference notes

  • “Haldol” is the classic brand name used in the U.S., U.K., Canada, and many other countries for the standard oral tablet and short‑acting injection.
  • “Haldol Decanoate” or “Haldol Serevent” refers to the depot (long‑acting) injectable formulations used for maintenance therapy.
  • In some countries the drug is sold under the generic name Haloperidol alone, without a branded label (e.g., many European countries).
  • Dosage strengths and available dosage forms vary by market, so always check the specific package insert or prescribing information for your region.
