The 75 mg dose cited in by IM injection once a month. Therefore, the haloperidol is released in small daily doses over the month period.

This IM dose should result in limited concentrations of the drug in breast milk.
With moms who are breastfeeding and need this type of drug, every effort should be used to maintain breastfeeding while taking the drug.
