Interesting replies. Will the droperidol happy people now start using
haloperidol given droperidoll's withdrawl ?
And for a variation on the theme:
I recently saw a modification of the Maudsley protocol which suggested use
of flumazenil after use of lorazepam if the respiratory rate drops less
than 10. Given the acuity of cases presenting who require chemical
restraint and the often lack of information including toxicology results,
who would feel happy to use flumazenil given the potential for underlying
'toxicology' problems ?
