Which medication is most commonly used to treat psychosis?

Haldol
Prozac
Viagra
Xanax

The correct answer is: Haldol

The correct answer is Haldol, which is a first-generation antipsychotic medication primarily used to treat psychosis, including conditions like schizophrenia and acute psychotic episodes. Its efficacy in managing symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions makes it a frontline treatment in psychiatry. Prozac, while an important medication, is an antidepressant that primarily treats conditions such as depression and anxiety disorders, not psychosis. Viagra is used to treat erectile dysfunction and has no role in psychotic treatment. Xanax, which is a benzodiazepine, is primarily used for anxiety and panic disorders and is not indicated for psychosis. Haldol stands out as the appropriate choice for directly addressing psychotic symptoms.
