Quetiapine low dose
Common Questions and Answers about Quetiapine low dose
seroquel
with low dose you sleep well. less than 50. as you up the dose until 100 it works as an MS . as to increasing energy i don't believe it because it lessens the dopamine as an antimanic. but because you don't have psychosis any more you are not tired from that so you feel better and also a good sleep makes you more energetic as thesea said.
seroquel works on the 5-htp and is good for depression it's the only AP prescribed for depression by the FDA.
Has any one reduced and successfully stopped taking quetiapine? were there any horrible withdrawal symptoms or return of symptoms? I am feeling scared I must say.

My psychiatrist made me take Fluoxetine to treat depression like 3 years ago. I began to have trouble getting an erection ever since. I stopped taking it about 2.5 years ago but the problem persisted. This has caused me severe distress... I lost the woman I loved because of this problem. Sometimes I can have an erection and sometimes I just can't, or it's very weak. I've been taking quetiapine and lamotrigine to treat bipolar disorder for about 1.5 years.
Hi! I'm just trying to do some research for my friend ... She's been on Quetiapine (an atypical antipsychotic) for about 2yrs, but previous to this she was diagnosed with borderline hypothyroidism. Suddenly, she has fallen really ill and blood tests have confirmed minor hypothyroidism (T3 levels around 9)... but the symptoms look like hyper!
As far as meds, dopamine agonists are sometimes prescribed. If you find it necessary to go that route, start at a low dose and stay at each level a while and give it a chance to work before increasing the dose. Be aware of potential side effects, especially at higher doses. Based on my experience, it can be a good idea to have someone close to you know that these meds can cause addictive behaviors so they can watch for signs of trouble, as by that point, you might not be able to be objective.
i never heard of advair or minoxidil, it seems meds to treat other things than psych also the others seem strange.
since you seem to suffer from other symptoms, my modest advise is to seek a hospital support, a GP is of no help here.
you went toxic on lithium, meaning you didn't monitor the dose. so either you don't have time to check or change the meds without doc consent.
suppose i tell you quetiapine helps me in my rapid cycling, would you try it.
When I do not take Quetiapine thee is no chance that I will sleep, is there any natural remedies that will help me sleep?
My Doctor prescribed me a low dose of Prozac at 12 weeks. I'm 30 weeks now and haven't had any side effects. I was having severe anxiety attacks and couldnt even get out of bed and have never had anything like that before being pregnant. I feel so much more myself with it. There are many options for antidepressants while pregnant. I would suggest doing as much research as you can and then talk to your doctor to find a solution. Good luck!
I tried Geodeon recently, and could only tolerate the side effects for a month, then I changed back to Quetiapine. I changed over to Geodeon for the same reason that you did, in one month I gained 30 pounds!
Hi, I've had severe depression for about 8months now and have been on medication and counselling etc, and i thought things were getting better as i seemed to get these happy episodes, but now theyve become severe episodes where i feel such overwhelming excitment and happiness.... all i want to do is jump up and down and scream and sing and talk to anyone who is there, and if no one is there i will talk to myself.
I am 7 days off Effexor after being on a 300mg dose for 4 years. I also have quetiapine at night to help me sleep. I have been experiencing what now seems to be normal side effects - brain zaps, different emotional states, crying for the first time in years, anger, frustration which is very hard for my husband and children and I just feel like a failure. I don't know if this is co incidence but I also have what feels like flu - aching body, sore throat, no energy.
