Hi Declan,
IMO, the high strength haloperidol capsules/tablets ought to be discontinued eg. the 10mg and 20mg tablets. This would discourage doctors from prescribing excessively high doses. The 0.5mg and 1.5mg and 5mg tablets are the only strengths which are necessary to treat schizophrenia/acute mania.
Kind regards
