seroquel

8520825 tn?1398511460 t think Seroquel will hang around for too long. Some people think that this effect can cause drug interactions, but I don't know how much evidence there is for this. Receptors will adapt over time, but I don't know how fast the process is. The actual blockade will stop when the drug is out of your blood, but certain receptors may have been upregulated or downregulated (i.e. expressing more or fewer of them) while taking it, but your body will adjust in time.
574118 tn?1305135284 From what I understand, when you drop seroquel you go into mixed state of mania. That doesn't mean it is a bad drug, it means it was working to keep you out of mania. When you stop taking it - mania; when you take it - no mania. That's an effective drug. You are not addicted to it. If you were addicted you would crave an increase of the drug. It is just doing the job it is intended to do.
1168718 tn?1464983535 I love Seroquel! I have been on it for years and it is one drug I have never, ever had a problem with. I have been on so many drugs that I had problems with. I usually take 25mg and if I am having a bad time I might take two 25mg in a day. I like the regular over the extended release because it does not leave me spacey. Everyone is different. The Doctor is the key ingredient. Every drug has side effects. Everyone reacts differently to each drug. There is no one size fits all.
Avatar n tn Friend of mine was on Seroquel, and because of the involuntary jaw movements associated with Seroquel, she chipped her bottom front tooth.
Avatar m tn 0 mg at night, and seroquel 450mg. After the addition of seroquel I started having classical music in my head that I could hear when I was hospitalized I asked several people if they heard what I did and they did not. However when I came home from the hospital I didn't have anymore auditory hallucinations. Seroquel helped me a lot with my ocd and gave me a lot of functioning ability. My adverse affects are sleep walking, night sweats and shaking hands until I eat something sweet.
518117 tn?1429276273 If this drug is that dangerous, then I want to advise my son about this. The Seroquel has helped his bipolar and to sleep. But, it not worth the risk, if it is causing these type of serious problems in patients. Thanks.
Avatar f tn In May, June and part of July I was taking Trazdone 200mg qhs, but then switched back to Seroquel 200mg, taking 400mg qhs. I am confused as to what caused the positive test for benzos? Will you please help me to understand this?
Avatar f tn The first question would be, do you actually have bipolar disorder? It's overdiagnosed. Did a psychiatrist or psychologist diagnose you or a regular doc? Because if that's not what you have, yes, Seroquel has as a side effect that it's very sedating, but when you take drugs for psychoses and you're not psychotic they can cause all kinds of odd side effects. And any drug that affects the brain can have odd effects on a particular individual.
534105 tn?1226157177 t have side effects than taking another very strong drug affecting neurotransmitters such as Seroquel. I just see that as a drug you take when you must, not just to make things a little easier. But you get to decide, it's your life, your doctor does not get to decide for you.

Avatar n tn Will this drug cause more problems or will it help me sleep and get rid of disphoria feelings?
Avatar f tn I take 900mg of Seroquel a day split 800mg XR and 100mg normal as a sleeper - Seroquel has been a life saving drug to me, It stabilised my mixed state and its keeps me going very well. I get side effects, everyone does from antypical anti-psychotics. Mine are feeling tired all the time (less since I switched to XR), weight gain (yes it does oh boy does it ever - not as bad as Zyprexa but you need to watch the appetite) dry mouth, runny nose, stomach upsets at times.
Avatar f tn About three weeks ago I found a website concerning a class action lawsuit against the makers of Serqouel and decided I would stop using same. Now I cannot sleep for nothing. Has this drug messed with my brain chemistry? Is this a drug that should have been tapered, is it addicting? Can you help me? I guess I should add that I'm not on Suboxone anymore, and have NEVER had sleep problems.
Avatar m tn Seroquel has been linked to diabetes.
Avatar m tn Anybody know anything about Seroquel for anxiety and sleep? I am on 100 mg a night. Experiencing some side effects. What are normal side effects? I have only been on it two weeks.
Avatar n tn I feel like it doesnt work as well as it did the first time. I went up to 450 with Seroquel, but I am just way too sleepy. Does anyone know a drug that works well with Pexeva and Lithium? My biggest problems are racing thoughts and anxiety when I am off of the Seroquel. Help!
202665 tn?1248806733 Curious if anyone knows how long our drugs stay in your system once you stop taking them? days, months? If I'm looking to take a blood test amd not have these show up, I'm wondering how far in advance I'd have to stop taking them.
663901 tn?1232649671 Not brushing your teeth can cause health hazards besides cavities and gum disease. Seroquel is an excellent drug for hypo/mania and anxiety, pretty much a wonder drug for me, popping any pill has risks, but you have to look at the benefits right?
1246883 tn?1285547973 The last one left is checking my cortisol level. I should those test results back next week. Then the next test is to check adrenal failure and insulin resistance. I guess it is just back to yoga and hope my weight goes down. Thanks for your input.
605458 tn?1539228808 I used to take regular Seroquel with no sexual side effects. I was recently changed to Seroquel XR and the side effects are so different than regular Seroquel, and one of them is sexual side effects. Anyone else? The other new med I am on is Amitiza, which is for Irritable Bowel Syndrome and didn't have sexual side effects listed. I have been under a lot of new stress lately, but that has never caused this problem in the past.
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 n tn Why are the withdrawal symptoms of seroquel the same as the withdrawal symptoms of heroin? I know that you shouldn't just stop taking it and I understand that it is a non-narcotic medication, but I still would like to know why the symptoms are the same? I am currently taking seroquel for anxiety.
