      I think you're right about Antipsychotic #16. You wouldn't use haloperidol over clozapine b/c of less interference with levodopa (B). Haloperidol is contraindicated in parkinson's, causing extrapyramidal effects itself (Lipp 84, 130). But clozapine does cause agranulocytosis, so D seems like the better choice.
