Abstract

A violent psychotic patient responded to haloperidol syrup but developed an urticarial reaction. An immunological test, the macrophage migration inhibition factor test, showed the allergic factor to be a nonactive constituent of the syrup; this finding permitted the safe use of haloperidol tablets.
