Side effects are dose-dependent. At times it's prescribed with Cogentin to mitigate the side effects. Haldol is a very effective antipsychotic.

It's definitely an old med, but sometimes the old tried-and-true meds are the best option. Lithium and Depakote are also relatively "old", but they're considered to be the gold-standard first line meds to deal with mood stabilization.
