HiThanks for using healthcare magicI think, she has hallucination due to metastasis. In that case, just carry on with haloperidol or you can try quetiapine or olanzapine. Organic psychosis is very difficult to treat and some time does not get improved with medication. Better to try any of these sedative antipsychotic, at least with it she would remain calm.Thanks
