Zonked, I think risperidone would be safer, but perhaps there is somthing that makes haloperidol best in this situation that I'm not aware of.

Ask your mothers doctor if anything else can be done.

Because the atypicals have fewer side effects than Haldol, perhaps she could take say 1mg risperidone every night to keep the delusions under control?
