Although previous reports have documented the safe and effective use of intravenous haloperidol in agitated cardiac patients, the dosages advocated have in general been relatively low: 1 to 2 mg every 2 to 4 hours. In this report, the authors demonstrate that such doses may be insufficient to control severe agitation in coronary care unit patients. Four cases are presented in which more than 100 mg/day of intravenous haloperidol were required for safe and effective control of confusion and agitation.
