How is seroquel used for ADD?

Seroquel is an anti-psychotic used mainly in the treatment of bipolar disorder. If an ADHD individual is suffering from bipolar mania, this will help them stay more even throughout the period indirectly helping their ADHD (by lessening the symptoms of bipolar). Seroquel is not used for ADHD; it is used to treat bipolar disorders.


Your daughter has ADHD and bipolar she is on 40mg of Vyvanse and 12mg serequel all the sudden she is behaving strange what are some other options besides serequel?

Let me begin by saying that I hope your daughter is being followed by a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner that specializes in working with children. I am not a doctor, however I have worked with individuals, of all ages, with a diagnosis of Bipolar Disorder. A diagnosis of bipolar disorder and ADHD is not uncommon, but it can be difficult to treat, because many medications used to treat ADHD can trigger Bipolar Mania. I would not be surprised if the vyvanse triggers symptoms of mania at various times of the year. I would continue taking seroquel, discontinue the vyvanse, and start Straterra. Honestly, (again, I am not a physician) the only ADHD med that I trust, with an individual who has Bipolar, is Straterra. Straterra is not typically prescribed to children, however it is the only medication that treats ADHD which is not a stimulant. Check out my previous post about Bipolar Treatments: What are effective treatments for bipolar disorder Be well.

At what age is bipolar disorder first diagnosable?

At the age of five the bipolar disorder is diagnosable. But it is possible to diagonise at an early stage also by using some advanced equipments. A study conducted WHEN by Demitri Papolos, MD, and Janice Papolos indicates that more than 80% of children diagnosed with bipolar disorder come from families with a history of mood disorders and/or alcoholism on both sides of the family. And yet, even when a strong family history of this is present, professionals rarely consider early-onset bipolar disorder. Many children who actually have bipolar disorder have been diagnosed with ADHD.
