Sounds like the Haldol to me... seems like most (not quite all)
antipsychotics have a tendency to do that... it wears off after awhile I
think, as long as they don't give you more of it... Haldol and Prolixin
both come in long-acting injection but I can't remember how long they
last -- they had to give me Cogentin (an antidote of sorts) for awhile to
get rid of the effects of those two (which are, to me, poison)
