Avatar n tn Trying to taper off and get off opiates, morphine and oxy. can clonidine be taken at the same time to help with not having as much of the opiates? and help with the withdrawls?
Avatar f tn I have been on regular Seroquel for years and Seroquel XR for some time now and I have never gained any weight. In fact, I was on Seroquel when I lost the weight I gained from all the other drugs.

I never win anything, so, maybe in my loss of health, I can win in the number of meds I take!
Avatar n tn t gotten it and they said i should come pick up some sort of withdrawl med but husband wants me clean and clear. I came off of Seroquel last week (took for sleep and was not sleeping anymore) as well cold turkey. his point is that if these meds are not working, stop, clean up and revisit. I have lupus and ra at 39. But I have been in bed 8 days unable to function. Vomiting and already lost 10lbs.
Avatar f tn I hate the sneezing. Oh and sleep *****. I took Clonidine and Seroquel for the first few days and that helped allot but I've stopped them now, I don't like feeling drowsy all the time from the Seroquel, but FYI, they help with w/d's. Seroquel is a psych med though but Clonidine is a blood pressure med but it's often used to help w/d's but it sounds like you're doing pretty good. Maybe some Ibuprofen might help?
575214 tn?1218040360 s on two antipsychotic as well (Seroquel, Abilify). I have schizoaffective disorder and generally did not need more than one antipsychotic. Did they diagnose any form of psychosis in him? Benzotropine is a side effect pill. It is used to stop motor restlessness in antipsychotics but if he is experiencing that that may contribute to the problem. I take Clonidine in patch form.
6815927 tn?1395511425 Thephoenix75, i have used gabepentin and clonidine and i am currently on clonidine and it does help so I would recommend it I am NOT a doctor so talk to your pcp and see what she says... gabepentin is also good to use for wd. I have Backpain coming from a car accident that occurred 14 years ago and i am on fentanyl 100 mcg q 48 hrs and percocet 10/325 8 daily mdd and also oxymoronphone 40mg 2 daily mdd...
766412 tn?1234893283 My husband takes seroquel and depakote. He has been on it for 10 years and has done great with it. He did change from taking morning/night to just at night due to his high dose making it difficult to function during the day.
Avatar m tn If it were me, i would take up to 30 mg of diazepam instead of the seroquel.....and read the post above concerning one individuals experience with seroquel......lots of natural things that do work also. Check out the amino acid protocol and the Thomas Recipe posted at bottom right of page.
Avatar f tn Depakote, seroquel, effexor, and for a short time, wellbutrin (I shook on that one, it really amped me up). Off all now and am feeling better but know that I need to find a med that works for my core diagnosis.
663901 tn?1232649671 Yes when I was on Seroquel I had to get an eye exam each year due to the extremely rare risk of cataracts but I saw an opthamologist anyway so it was no big deal. That is statisically rare and no reason to be concerned about Seroquel and a check up as I suggested is the best form of follow up. Seroquel is safe in this regard. In this case (you know I am always factual) your pharmacist was overstating the risk but a follow up visit is generally a good idea.
Avatar f tn Since seroquel can cause high BG you sure your diabetic and not as a result of seroquel raising your BG? Go to Google and put seroquel into the serch field.
Avatar f tn My first pregnancy i did bot use it and my daughter is very smart. I was wondering if any of you have used seroquel and delivered a healthy baby.
Avatar f tn Two months ago I experienced an overdose on excedrin, clonidine and benadryl and recovered. At the time, I was informed of a potential heart murmur. Lymph nodes have been tender and large for years but one has become hard in the last month. I occasionally have moments where I loose a couple seconds and get startled. I get random, painless muscle spasms quite regularly. I normally have lower blood pressure floating around 120/55.
Avatar m tn Has anyone taken Seroquel and anti-biotics and are now experiencing heart problems? Do these issues subside, I stopped the seroquel when this happened?
802234 tn?1237830136 My question I took my first dose of Seroquel XR last night and woke with small puffy area inside the 'bags' under my eyes they are still there 9 hours into the day - a non-work, no sun, low energy day (the bags are normal, puffiness is normal when I cry) but usually the whole 'bag' is swollen not just a part. They are not exactly the same size or in the same position, not red, itchy, hot or sensitive.
Avatar m tn Ironically, I just left my family doctor and he prescribed me seroquel and librium...so Im hopeful tonight is the lucky night! Thank You anyway, its good to know that it was effective for you to sleep..Hell right now I want something to put me on my *** in the worst and best kind of way. ...if that makes sense. Thanks one more time for all your helpful info and god bless you!
Avatar f tn Go on olanzapine..same family as seroquel. Another drug which has antihistamine. Seroquel also helped for a while then stopped Clonidine? Any other options...im at the point where i need to stabalize so plz dont mention yoga. I tried meditating today and realized i cant until i am at a level of normal crazy.
1134609 tn?1269272200 Every atypical antipsychotic has the potential of metabolic changes that can cause weight gain and on ocassion diabetes but if you eat a sensible diet and exercise that can be kept under control (that also includes the second issue, a person I knew developed pre-diabetes from Abilify and through weight loss, proper dieting and exercise and following up with his doctor was able to keep this in check).
Avatar n tn The knowledge that I have is that xanax and Seroquel do not have an impact on your liver. Also 50 mgs of Seroqeul is very low dose. I am on 600. However it looks like you have hepatitis c and you probably know you shouldn't drink because of that. There are likely a lot of medications that effect your liver. The only ones I know of are Tylenol and pain medicines that contain acetaminophen, but I am sure there are likely a lot more.
