4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
HALDOL Decanoate is indicated for the maintenance treatment of
schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder in adult patients
currently stabilised with oral haloperidol (see section 5.1).
4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Treatment initiation and dose titration must be carried out under
close clinical supervision.
Posology
The individual dose will depend on both the severity of the symptoms

As the initial dose of haloperidol decanoate is based on a multiple of
the daily oral haloperidol dose, specific guidance on
switching from other antipsychotics cannot be provided (see section
5.1).
