IV thorazine is not the standard of care anywhere, so don't use it.
When a pt needs tranquilization - especially when delirious, IV Haldol is a great choice. Start with 1 or 2 mg, wait 20 mins, if no effect double the dose, wait 20 mins, if no effect double the dose, etc.
So I usually go: 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, etc. Very rarely have to go past the 10 mg dose. Then I schedule the effective dose Q4-6 hours with prns available for breakthrough agitation.
QTc prolongation can be a problem, but Haldol has the lowest per-dose-equivalent risk of QTc prolongation of any of the neuroleptics. Risk can be minimized by repleting K and Mg, d/c-ing other QTc prolonging agents (Reglan, fluoroquinolones, methadone, etc.), and monitoring the pt.
