seroquel

Avatar f tn I personally would not choose seraquil for anxiety unless I had underlying symptoms.The benifit of seroquel is it stays in your system longer than the xanax does, it would also get rid of the comming down feeling you can sometimes get with xanax.25mg. of seroquel is a very low yet reasonable strength for your needs You can over time develop a resistant to the mgs. your taking and will have to raise the dose or go to something else.I am bi polar 1 rapid cycler with acute anxiety. I take 100 mgs.
Avatar f tn My question is a simple one. If I go through it again either voluntary or involuntary HOW long can one expect the worst of symptoms to FINALLY subside. The crawling in the skin, vomiting, diarrhea, can't sleep or eat. I've done all kinds of research and have read the warnings and horror stories. I also know that it varies on body type, age, amount and length of abuse. I have also concluded that cold turkey although not suggested or liked will not kill you.
Avatar m tn There is no good answer for either of us, but that is not why I asked the original question. I just wanted to know how long the vicoden would stay in her system. I have already decided that I am going to test her, and that if she doesn't stay off of them, she is going to have to deal with it by herself. I know it sounds harsh, but I'm not going to watch her ruin her life, my life, our kids lives, her families lives or kill some inocent bystander.
Avatar f tn I have been on seroquel since 2006. Don't understand the meaning of "to be good". Seroquel is a good drug from my experience.
Avatar n tn I want her off her meds. How will she be weaned and does anyone know if she will lose some of this weight gain? She is somewhat active and does try to keep her weight down but at each psych. visit she has gained more weight.
574118 tn?1305135284 Hi, the XR is extended release, it releases a little at a time throughout the day, where as the standard Seroquel is like an instant hit, it makes you very sleepy. I wish there was a happy medium, 12 years later I am still searching.. my meds are constantly being tweaked, sometimes by myself which isn't advisable but I think a lot of BP sufferers are extremely aware of what helps and what doesn't...we are not given enough credit!
Avatar m tn I find an icecap from Tim Horntons does the trick and since I'm driving I want to be alert.....
Avatar m tn As to your question about your immune system, any drug that sedates you could theoretically lower your immune system. Any drug can also lower your immune system because all drugs are seen as invaders by the body, as they aren't food and our bodies have involved to use food, not drugs, at least not yet.
Avatar f tn I can understand and tolerate anxiety and use coping skills if I knew how long it would last. Not knowing how long it will last is torture. I mean I have an idea of how long withdrawal from an antidepressant anxiety last and how long startup anxiety from an antidepressant last about 7 to 10 days but I have no idea how long my raw untreated with an antidepressant would last . Would last.
539549 tn?1315981662 After recovery as regards psychosis I know when moodswings will occur. Things just don't seem right. Then as now the first person I talk about to about it is my psychiatrist. That goes for everyone imo. As for not letting other people know if you feel the urge to say something that might be inappropriate don't. Think about it first. But if you have friends that you trust let them know. Especially if some of them have bipolar.
Avatar n tn i take lithium, prestic and seroquel. recently i had two grand mal seizures; the worst kind and was in the hospital for 10 days. they put me on restraints, was in icu and 5 other days in neurology. i had a a ct, mri and spinal tap. the hospital took me off prestic, seroquel and lithium and the neurologist put me on lamital for both seizures and depression. also, i am taking invega and ativan for anxiety. the reason for my seizures is because of medicine.
142722 tn?1281533616 It is fantastic! I had minor side effects from it. I had hand shaking. Once I adjusted, no problems and it went away. Drink lots of water on it and get regular blood tests for your kidney's, Thyroid and Lithium level. There is a range. They will probably start you on 900mg a day for two weeks, test your blood, then adjust you to the right range up or down. I happen to need 1450mg a day. I am at .9 which is perfect. .8 or .9 is great. You might gain a few pounds on it.
Avatar f tn I'm wonfdering how long withdrawals last for taking less the 2 months at 600-700mg my psych droctor is a straight ******* so asking him will be a waste of time
1246883 tn?1285547973 Seroquel stays in your system for a long time. I have never heard of that for a sleep aide. Its normally written for bipolar, its a psych med. Seroquel will make you gain weight and it will cause your self esteem to go down rapidly. You should try Ambian or Lunesta. they are the best out right now. As far as the weight ask for Effexor its for depression but has helped me lose weight.
Avatar m tn Dear Ronndy I would say that 100 mg Seroquel is a very high dosage to treat insomina. Usually you would take only 10-25 mg in that respect. It seems that you could have some withdrawl problems as you stopped klonopin abruptly. As Paxiled pointed out it is a bit "heavy" to prescribe klonopin for insomnia when "lighter" medications are available, for instance zolpidem or zopiklone. Or anti-histamine(allergy-medication as atarax).
Avatar f tn This dose is working for me and is not an overdose. My moods have been BAD BAD BAD as of late, so in addition to the seroquel being increased, so has my lithium.
397118 tn?1219762250 Ok the title says it all lol, How long does marijuana stay in your system? I never did marijuana so don't know is for my nephew he keeps saying he is not doing any and every test is positive and occording to him the last time he use was 5 months ago but every month the test is positive. What do you guys think? is it like he says that it stays in your body for a long time or he is still using?
Avatar f tn I know it is short acting but how long does it stay in your system? Is it 4 or 6 hours? The reason I am asking is sometimes if I have an attack and it helps but by bedtime I might start feeling like I'm going to have another. So I was worndering if it was the xanax wearing off or if I was just still feeling some more anxiety. Thanxs to all.
Avatar n tn Oh, one question... What type of stomach problems? Did you mention the stomach problems to your doctor? Did she think that the stomach problems were because of a panic attack? If the stomach problems are a badly upset stomach, then I would go to Another doctor and let them know that you recently had the gardasil vaccine and you exerienced an upset stomach (mention this first) as well as the other more common side effects that you mentioned.
