Can weight watchers help me lose weight while on seroquel?

Weight Watchers may be a good addition to helping you loose the weight put on from taking Seroquel, but it is unlikely to be as effective as it would be for people not taking the drug. Because Seroquel alters your metabolism, it prevents you from losing weight. Most people have had success loosing weight on Seroquel by taking other medications that aid in weight control/loss. Your best bet is to speak with your doctor.


What is worse weight gain on depakote dr or seroquel?

Seroquel is definitely the weight gainer.

I have been taking seroquel for 5 years. Initially I gained 50 pounds, but after starting a healthy eating programme and gentle excercise the pounds are starting to come off.


Will you lose weight after you stop taking lithium?

I've been on seroquel 100mg for the past two years and have recently decided to change to Zeldox/Geodon after gradually putting on 9kg. My Psychiatrist tells me that most people lose the weight they put on (depending on how much) quite quickly after stopping seroquel, and for the amount I put on it should take weeks rather than months. I cant really say what the case would be if someone was on a very high dose and/or put on large amount of weight, but hope that helps :)
