Domperidone acts as an antagonist at the dopamine D2 receptors in the CTZ.
By inhibiting agonist activity in the CTZ it will not VC.

Metoclopramide works as a Muscarinic Acetyl Choline Receptor Agonist which is capable of causing a number of side effects;
These side effects are usually well tolerated because this agonism is a minor part of the overall pharmacology.

The influence of renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics of haloperidol has not been evaluated. No dose adjustment is recommended, but caution is advised when treating patients with renal impairment. However, patients with severe renal impairment may require a lower initial dose, with further doses administered and adjusted according to the patient’s response
The influence of hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics of haloperidol has not been evaluated. Since haloperidol is extensively metabolised in the liver, it is recommended to halve the initial dose.
The recommended initial haloperidol dose in elderly patients is half the lowest adult dose. Further doses may be administered and adjusted according to the patient’s response. Careful and gradual dose uptitration in elderly patients is recommended.
Monitoring:
Electrolyte disturbances such as hypokalaemia and hypomagnesaemia increase the risk for ventricular arrhythmias and must be corrected before treatment with haloperidol is started. Therefore, baseline and periodic electrolyte monitoring is recommended
Counselling:
Switch from mania to depression: There is a risk in the treatment of manic episodes of bipolar disorder for patients to switch from mania to depression. Monitoring of patients for the switch to a depressive episode with the accompanying risks such as suicidal behaviour is important in order to intervene when such switches occur.
Monitoring:
A baseline ECG is recommended before intramuscular dosing. During therapy, the need for ECG monitoring for QTc interval prolongation and for ventricular arrhythmias must be assessed in all patients, but continuous ECG monitoring is recommended for repeated intramuscular doses. ECG monitoring is recommended up to 6 hours after administration of haloperidol solution for injection to patients for prophylaxis or treatment of postoperative nausea and vomiting. Whilst on therapy, it is recommended to reduce the dose if QTc is prolonged, but haloperidol must be discontinued if the QTc exceeds 500 ms.
PF3010
Greater risk of QT prolongation with use of IM depot injectable dosage forms of haloperidol.
Counselling:
Oral solution and suspensions need to be shaken before use.
