Common side effects include drowsiness, dizziness, weight gain, and muscle stiffness. In Hong Kong, droperidol is usually administered orally or intramuscularly. Patients should follow their doctor's advice and have regular follow-up visits to monitor treatment effectiveness and adverse reactions. Do not stop using droperidol suddenly to avoid a withdrawal syndrome. Avoid drinking alcohol and driving a motor vehicle during use. If serious adverse reactions or allergic reactions (such as difficulty breathing, rash, etc.) occur, seek medical attention immediately. Talk with your doctor for more information about droperidol.

When using fluphenazine during pregnancy, patients should strictly follow their doctor's advice. To ensure the health of the mother and fetus, patients should try to avoid using fluphenazine during pregnancy. Although this drug may cause potential harm to the fetus, in some cases your doctor may decide that using fluphenazine is more important for the mother's health.
If you find out you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant, you should tell your doctor right away. Your doctor may suggest that you stop taking fluphenazine or adjust the dose of your medicine. Additionally, patients should be monitored and followed up regularly by their doctor during pregnancy to ensure the health of you and your fetus.
In general, caution must be exercised when using fluphenazine, especially during pregnancy. Always discuss any pre- and post-pregnancy medication plans with your doctor to ensure both you and your baby remain healthy.
