📋 Product Overview Table

🧬 What is Serenace (Haloperidol)?

Serenace 5mg, produced by RPG Life Sciences Ltd, is a widely trusted typical antipsychotic medication used to manage severe mental health conditions like schizophrenia, acute psychosis, and mania. It also plays a role in controlling motor and vocal tics in Tourette’s syndrome.

Haloperidol works by blocking dopamine receptors in the brain, helping stabilize mood and reduce hallucinations, delusions, and aggression. Though it belongs to the older generation of antipsychotics, it remains crucial in clinical use, especially for acute psychiatric emergencies.

It serves as a generic equivalent of Haldol in the US, offering a cost-effective, accessible treatment from a reliable Indian manufacturer.
