Serenace Injection Uses in Urdu

Ingredients

This injection contains Haloperidol 5mg, an antipsychotic used for rapid symptom control.

Working of this Medicine

Serenace (Haloperidol) works by blocking dopamine receptors in the brain. Excess dopamine activity is linked with agitation, hallucinations, and psychosis. By controlling this imbalance, the medicine helps calm the mind, stabilizes mood, and reduces aggressive or disturbed behavior. It also helps minimize overactivity of certain brain pathways, allowing the patient to regain clarity and control. The injection form provides fast action, making it suitable for emergency situations.
