It has been my experience that Compazine often has dosage mistakes involved with it.

The suppositories were 25mg for adults and 5mg for children. So some doctors ordered 25mg for oral treatments which was very dangerous.

An injection could easily be mistaken the same way.

Compazine belongs to the family of antipsychotics and they can cause malignant neuroleptic syndrome...which is more common in males.

This should be entered into your medical history so that you never get this drug again.(or its relatives)

That must have been very frightening for you and your family!
