User Reviews for quetiapine oral

Have gained weight and am agitated often. not sure if it is working. the depression has lessened tremendously.

Works somewhat better than Lithium but the weight gain is terrifying and tired all the time.

Previously I had been treated with very limited success with: Lithium, Depacote, Triliptal, Risperdal, Lamictal, zoloft, Wellbutrin, Abilify, clonsepam, zypreza etc. My exsistance was unbearable. I went to a clinic and was taken off all the above. I spent three weeks rapid cycling with psychotic features and devestating depressions and suicidality. Within a week of starting Seroquel my symptoms disappeared and have not returned in two years. The possible side effects are frightening but nothing compares with the hell I lived with for nearly 20 yearsRead More Read Less

I first went on seroquel when it was released around the year 2000. Since then I've tried other atypicals and have just found that it is best. I do not have the drowiness that some report and I am on the max FDA does (800 mg). The weight gain has been hard for my family and I, but is not a major problem. So far my blood sugar levels have beeb stable which is also a concern for some.

I have had problems with this medication. There are times that is keeps me up at night, where I am agitated, nervousness etc...

I have been on this for about 4 years and it works great.I use this with Cymbalta.

I have become addicted to this medication

i have been on this medication for about 7 months along with cymbalta. I think this medication works better than any of the other medications that i have been on.

I have been taking this for 2 months now. I also take Wellbutrin, the mixture has made my depression go away, but it also has caused me not to sleep well. I sleep about 3 hrs a night.

to early to tell

I have severe Bipolar disorder with Schizophrenia aspects. This med has allowed me to function in both my workplace and personal life. I no longer have delusions or hear voices. This med does take a few weeks to start working. It is far better than my previous main meds over the last 20 years which included Depakote and Lithium. I would recommend this med to anyone who has had mixed results with other meds.
