SENORM L.A INJECTION 1ML is used in the treatment of schizophrenia. Also, it is used to control motor and speech tics of Tourette’s disorder. Schizophrenia affects the ability of a person to feel, think and behave clearly. Tourette's syndrome is a mental disorder characterized by uncontrollable, repetitive movements or unwanted sounds (tics). 

SENORM L.A INJECTION 1ML contains Haloperidol, which blocks the dopamine receptors in the brain, preventing its overactivity, thereby controlling psychotic illnesses and improving disturbed thoughts, behaviour and feelings in mental conditions such as schizophrenia.

SENORM L.A INJECTION 1ML will be administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer. Sometimes, SENORM L.A INJECTION 1ML may cause common side effects such as drowsiness, tremors, neck stiffness, nausea or vomiting, increased salivation, and weight gain.
