Common Questions and Answers about Seroquel overdose alcohol

seroquel

Avatar n tn how much seroquel, xanax, and alcohol causes an overdose. im qworried about my sister, she ha been prescribed xanax for 8 years now at 2mg a day, so her tolerance is well established. she is also an alcoholic. thankfully, she knows not to combine xanax while drinking, but what about the addition of seroquel? could she OD from the pill combination alone? would then the addition of alcohol just pretty much seal her fate?
871560 tn?1240023175 s still out as to whether it was caused by just the alcohol/benzo withdrawal, overdose quantities of seroquel, or the seroquel simply didn't allow my brain chemistry to re-normalize on its own, and it was brought on by physical activity after being down for a week. seroquel is an antipsychotic not a sedative, and it can be contraindicated in some individuals.
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.
Avatar n tn Hi my name is Mike and my wife is now currently in the hospital from overdose of seroquel and maybe other medications that she might have.
Avatar f tn Luckily for you, the overdose amount for seroquel is much higher than you took. I would suggest that you contact your doctor. He won't be happy with you taking more than prescribed but may increase your amount or try something else.
Avatar f tn Hmmm... Has she said why you're a big risk for OD on mood stabilizers? Is it something to do with your metabolism or she thinks you're suicidal? As it is, it depends on the person. If you've been on them before and didn't find them helpful, it's possible it doesn't work for you. However, if you ended them before they had a chance to get to a therapeutic level, it could be a dosage issue. Only you know how they affected you.
Avatar n tn There appear to be warnings about liver damage with Seroquel in combination with alcohol. The full information would be available on the medication website. It would be essential to discuss all this wth your psychiatrist as to potential health effects. Also drinkng can make many medications less effective. It would be worthwhile to discuss this with your psychiatrist as well.
Avatar m tn I took 40 25mg seroquel, 20+ 5mg Valium and 14 150mg exeflor xr with lemonade. I woke. Up this morning at 5:30am. Why did it not work?
Avatar n tn I agree with the above posters and would like to add Seroquel and Alcohol are a very bad combination.. not only does it affect coordination but your thinking memory and everything else.. Really a bad bad combo.. It sounds like the Seroquel is prescribed the booze isn't.. I hope you give up the Alcohol as it will throw a Monkey wrench in everything you try.. Be kind to yourself..
Avatar m tn If he's just taking hydrocodone, and not mixing with other drugs or alcohol, it would take alot to overdose. Especially if he has a tolerance. I would say its more likely he would need to go to the hospital for APAP toxicity than hydrocodone overdose. APAP (tylenol) is mixed with the hydrocodone and is not good for the liver in high doses. Just tell him not to go crazy and make sure he doesn't mix with alcohol or other drugs (besides weed), and he should remain alive.
Avatar m tn I hope this is a real wake up call for you cuz you are lucky you woke up. We have a fantastic alcohol forum here too. I would really recommend you checking that out along with some sort of aftercare. You say you are a heavy drinker already and you are young. There is a life out here that is fulfilling that doesnt require any type of substance abuse. Please get real honest with yourself, you got real lucky....this time.
Avatar m tn Hello, I would like to know if it is safe to fly and be taking medical treatment for a year with Seroquel 300 and Fluoxetine (Prozac). I have to take a plane in a few days and let me know if it is safe to take this treatment ((people taking Seroquel and flew by plane more than 6 hours) I would also like to know the flight experiences in other patients taking Seroquel. Thanks, Anthony.
Avatar m tn I would want to know from the members of this forum about how many people are using Seroquel only as a sleeping aid in doses of 25 mg and 50 mg.All suggestions and answers are welcome.
Avatar n tn PLEASE don't give your dogs anything at all like this before checking with your vet!

1035297 tn?1255899867 Does anyone else have a hard time not turning to drugs or alcohol while experiencing dysphoria or mixed states? I find it extremely difficult. Most of the time I can refrain, but sometimes it's so hard I have no idea what else to do. Therapy doesn't help, the meds aren't working...what are some things you guys do during these times?
Avatar f tn My son died from an overdose on Benadryl and alcohol. My friend told me the alcohol shut his liver down. It this possible?
Avatar f tn Pot is the only thing u cant overdose and die on out of what u listed(u can overdose on too many of any pill and alcohol can be deadly as well).U stated the family member was taking pain meds too.Yes all those meds and presciption pain killers also topped off with alcohol can cause death.
663901 tn?1232649671 I'm slipping... I've been out three times this week getting drunk. I was reckless... ended up going home with someone. This isn't me... hasn't been me for many, many months.... I'm afraid that the one med isn't going to cut it anymore.... I take seroquel 200/mg. I'm afraid to go back on more meds.... I'm at a loss..... my stress level is certainly contributing to this behavior....this isn't me...
Avatar f tn I'm on 150mg of slow release Seroquel and I googled the interactions but theyre all big names lol. I have a cold and want to make some Neo-Citran (its actually a non-generic brand called Equate Hot Lemon Relief lol) and it has warning on the box not to mix with certain things but again I have no idea!
Avatar f tn Acetaminophen intoxication is more dangerous in individuals with pre-existing liver problems (Hepatitis, Liver transplant recipients, etc) and chronic alcohol abusers, whom already have liver damage. Signs and symptoms of Acetaminophen poisoning usually onset within 24 hours of taking the dose and include nausea, vomiting, abdominal tenderness.
Avatar m tn I tried taking it again, but everytime i did my body went right back into that crazy state. I finally went on to Lexapro and Seroquel, it took me awhile to feel perfectly better again but i have felt good for about 4 months. I take one 10 mg of Lexapro every morning , and one 25mg of Seroquel most nights. I think i skipped 2 night in weeks because i was drinking.
Avatar f tn Hi I posted on here before and got great answers so I'm back again. I've had ADHD since 14 but only took meds for a few year before I decided to try things on my own. Now at 26 I'm working full time, going school and being a single parent. Needing help to focus and with depression I went to see a pyschologist( I have medi-cal so theres only one available) He put me on 10mg Adderall three times a day ( he said 4 but I made the decision to only do three).
Avatar m tn Last week I overdosed from taking approx. 4mls of GBL (a prodrug of GBH) and alcohol. Although I was deeply unconsious for several hours and had dangerously low heart rate and blood pressure. I spent the night in intensive care but was discharge the next morning. Since then I have made a full recovery, but have experienced heart pains and arrythmia at random moments. These usually last a few minutes and there is no disturbance in between these attacks.
