Question 2

Connie is a 47-year-old woman with schizophrenia. She has recently begun taking Haldol (a neuroleptic), but her family recently read about extrapyramidal side effects and has raised their concern with her psychiatrist.
 
  What would be the optimal course of action for the psychiatrist to take?
 
  a) Reassure the family, since these side effects are rare and easily reversed when the medication is withdrawn.
  b) Keep the dosage low and have medication holidays where Connie does not take the drug for periods of time when she is doing well.
  c) Try one of the newer drugs for treating schizophrenia that do not have these side effects.
  d) Discontinue the drug immediately; the psychiatrist is out of date in his or her training and should not have prescribed this medication.
