Hello welcome to the health care magic
Sorry to heard about your wife condition
For this case along with haloperidol, atypical antipsychotic drug like olanzepin can be prescribed
Drugs needs to be taken continously for atleast 6 to 8 month
Improvement not occur fully in few patient
Behavioural therapy Also beneficial
Consult good psychiatrist for examination and discuss your case
Take care
Hope this will help you
