Used primarily in the treatment of schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders due to its antipsychotic properties. It helps manage symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking. Also prescribed for anxiety and agitation in certain patients, especially when associated with psychoneurotic disorders. Has sedative effects, making it useful in managing insomnia and restlessness in psychiatric settings. Occasionally used off-label for nausea and vomiting control. Not typically a first-line treatment due to higher risk of extrapyramidal side effects compared to newer antipsychotics.
