Help sourcing Haloperidol (Haldol)

I have been digging through sources here and elsewhere for some time with absolutely zero luck in sourcing Haloperidol (Haldol) IM.
I can't figure out why it is so hard to obtain because it is not a controlled substance (at least here in the U.S.)
I am also trying to source Diphenhydramine (Benadryl) IM
If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.
 
wtf...shady as F. Trying to b52 someone?? Go see your inpatient psychiatrist and start some sh*t...you'll find yourself getting some with some IM ativan in no time....
 
Had to look that up. Yea wtf??? Sketchy
Yea its basically a "chemical restraint" used on agitated or combative patients. Sketchy he's asking for IM haldol with IM benadryl (esp if used with lorazepam )as its very sedating and works much faster than oral and can obviously be given against someone's will. There is haldol depo injection used for schizophrenic patients thats basically like a 30 day injection for non-compliant patients or those who forget to take meds daily.

Nothing sketchy about it. You do realize there are off label uses for most drugs right?
So, to clue the clueless in ... you see where I was also trying to source benadryl?
Is that sketchy as well?
But , if you two of you nervous Nancys must know haldol and benadryl combined combats serious bouts of nausea for those who suffer from Chrons.
Since it is labeled for psych use, it can't be prescribed for someone who isn't under or in need of psych care.
But thanks for trying to beat me down instead first instead of approaching like an adult inquiring why I might be trying to source these items.

Don’t worry about what they think bro. It’s the internet. Try @pharmacist.

Does it have to be IM?

I think you'll struggle to find it here... PPL was known to carry some exotic compounds though not too long ago. I expect they'll have their full product list back eventually.

Thanks man. I guess I expected a little more of an adult response but I forgot this is Meso lol

Yes, I need IM. Sometimes the nausea is extremely bad and I literally throw up anything that goes down the hatch including the oral meds I have. Can't throw an IM inject back up lol.

The benadryl along with the haldol almost aleviates symptoms enough to at least make life bearable.
Thanks for the input.

To be fair, you are newer here and the forum tends to get new members that create threads looking for sources for harder drugs thinking that this is a drug forum, it obviously isn't.

They probably came off a little strong but most people aren't aware that this drug combination can be useful for people with your condition - so you can imagine how it looks, more often than not there are guys looking for recreational drugs instead of medicinal.

Sorry to hear about your issues though, I know it can be a tough struggle. I have always been impressed with the variety of drugs that can be found on the internet but those two seem like they'd be a serious pain in the ass to source.

For sure I understand the new here and people looking for recreational items. But still yet, it's amazing how I stated it's NOT a controlled substance and so the juvenile comes out and the made up accusations start to roll. But I do understand and that's why I didn't fire back with insults ... that would make me like them.
And I knew eventually members with maturity would show up.
Im fighting with my doc and insurance now trying to get the haldol approved. It makes no sense they won't approve it because when I have a flare up bad enough for an extended ER trip ... that's what they give me to get it under control and the insurance even covers it then. I just figured I would try to source it and avoid the hassle of ER bills sort of like when I finally figured out I could brew my own test for TRT at a stupid fraction of the price a med center wanted lol

Alright, I apologize. I was trying to be funny. In all seriousness if you really do need it for nausea, its so cheap, just pay out of pocket using goodrx if insurance is really not approving it, which is odd considering again how cheap even the IV/IM formulation of haldol is. Also, have you ever tried zyprexa for nausea? They make a sublingual (odt) form called Zydis which gets absorbed really quickly too, and it also being an antipsychotic works well for nausea and doesnt have to be IM/IV.

Well thanks for stepping up with the apology.
You stand a lot taller in my eyes now than you did an hour ago.
I know it seems weird ... haldol is not a controlled substance but still requires a script. Kind of like Viagra. If you were stopped by LEO and had 60 viagra pills and no script, there's nothing they can cite you with because it's not a controlled substance YET you have to have a script to get it from a pharmacy.
I wish it was as simple as going to goodrx but you still have to have a script.
The problem I am fighting with the doctor is just getting him to write a script for it, I think he doesn't want the responsibility of prescribing a psych drug for a physical issue.
I have tried sublingual and even suppository Phenergan (prescribed) and it doesn't work no where near as well as the haldol / benadryl IM. I still have nausea and heavy vomiting with subs and suspositories. Sorry if that's too much information and that's kind of why I didn't just lay it all out on the first post.
I assume the reason you bring up the zyprexa is because the similarity to haldol but once again even subs don't work that well and I have the script Phenergan for that route.
Anyhow, didn't mean to respond by writing a book and truly I do appreciate the apology gesture and trying to help with some alternative ideas.

Ahh okay makes more sense now. I thought your physician had prescribed it but insurance hadn’t approved it. Im not sure why he’s so worried about prescribing haldol for off-label use, like you said, its not a controlled substance and not that dangerous of a med. zyprexa works really well too, but it’d be the same problem since it’s off-label psych med too. Is this a PCP or GI doc?
 
Gastrointestinal doc and supposedly the best in my region. He just absolutely avoids the convo on the haldol. I'm starting to wonder since it's actually a psych drug if he's even allowed to prescribe it? I got a follow up in the near future and I think I'm just going to pin him to the wall as to why not. Normally I am just not aggressive at all when it comes to HC providers for fear of being dropped and it's hard as hell to find providers nowadays but I guess that's going to have to change since I can't source the haldol on my own.

I will have to politely disagree with you there, friend. Depending on what state you live, having ANY prescription drug in pocket without the original prescription bottle or copy of the prescription, can be a violation of State law.

Just be careful carrying those 60 dick pills, depending on where u live. Lol.
