Seroquel

no it should not as seroquel is a benzodiazopine which is not related to amphetamines

I gained 40 pds in three months on seroquel. With me the weight loss began immediatly as well as my hunger pains subsiding. I have been off of it for 2 months and have lost 30 pds. 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.

no i did it and ended up in hospital with slowed breathing and chest pain

I have a serious case of ocd and have been using prozac and seroquel for almost a year now. It is slowly starting to work, I was suicidal when I first went to the hospital and 9 months later I am half way across the country attending university. I am told that the combination is used in severe cases of ocd, anxiety and depression

200 mg of seroquel is the same as taking 4 xanax

The honest answer is....they don't have a lot of information. That having been said, here's what IS known: untreated bipolar disorder or schizophrenia can have a very negative effect on the fetus, and that is well documented. Studies of seroquel on pregnant rats and dogs showed low birth weight and miscarriage risk, but these only showed up at doses FAR higher than the highest human dose. Your Dr. and yourself will need to work together to make the best choice for you. Remember, you are a person, too, whose needs also have to be taken into consideration. Good luck, and if you do take seroquel while pregnant, consider posting your experience online so that others in the future may learn from your findings!

There is no special danger from taking these drugs together. However, Seroquel is very damaging to the brain. It will probably leave you worse off in the long run than if you had never taken it. It can cause tardive dyskinesia, a form of brain damage similar to Parkinson's where you shake and your body moves uncontrollably. This happens to as many as 20% of people who take Seroquel or other antipsychotics for a long time, and once you have it nothing can be done, it's a permanent condition.

Antipsychotics like Seroquel are mostly used to control behavior that society finds undesirable, not for the benefit of the patient. Unless it is being prescribed for schizophrenia, I would think long and hard about taking it.

My mother is 86 and normally takes paxil, she had a flair up of her artheritis so her doctor gave her some cyclobenzaprine 10mg. She also takes some high blood pressure meds, i began giving her the cyclo, after her 3rd dose her BP went so low she passed out. I called 911 her BP was 96/48 and she normally has high BP, they took to the emergency room. After a scare and a few hours she was back to normal, after running all their tests everything with her was fine. Their conclusion was, it was the CLYCLOBENZAPRINE interaction that caused this, i would be very careful if you all mixing these two drugs!!!

Seroquel is the initial version of the drug, Seroquel XR is a sustained-release version useful because you will only need to take one dose daily as opposed to multiple doses of plain Seroquel.
Seroquel XR means extended release while Seroquel refers to the ordinary one.

i am not a trained/certified physician. however, i asked my psychiatric nurse practitioner this same question yesterday, and she said it would be fine. she has other patients that are on both.

i proposed the question, as i really like abilify (mood-wise), but it keeps me awake for days, and makes me feel really agitated physically, where as seroquel helps me sleep. I took the two together for a couple months or so but I had to quit taking the Abilify as I lost the ability to make simple conversation. I couldn't talk to loved ones or friends. I sat there basically brain-dead. I stopped taking the Abilify but kept taking the Seroquel and the brain inactivity was no longer a problem. Also to this day I can't control facial tics and I have not taken Abilify for almost two years. I was never warned that this would happen or become permanent.

Seroquel has a half-life of 6 hours, meaning that every six hours, half of the original amount of Serouel remains in your system. it stays in your system about 2 days it depends on the test they give you..lab test standard urine stick test..but chances are if your getting drug tested and you have no prescription...dont TAKE IT!

3 days for a more intesive urine test basic test it wont generaly show up (i use to be a pill head on felony probation ) 3 days it wont show up at all if its a basic test though

It depends on how much you do. Me and my friends were all on Klonopin (4 each), yola, and Seroquel (1 or 2) and we killed a 24 pack of Corona and only one of my boys ended up pukin his brains out and that's only cus he killed five beers in like two hours. You just got to know you're limits and DRINK SLOW, cus alcohol intensifies those drugs already. And don't go super crazy on the pills.

But none of us felt like we were gonna die.

if you take a differt types of antibiotica when don t you need, yhis antibiotics that you have used previously will be less effective again bacteria if you will take the same antibiotic in the future.

I asked myself that same question, came to the conclusion that yes you can, but if you screw it up, it is an anti psycotic, someone will change your diapers for life.... not worth it in the end. Taken that you are on seroquel like me........ there is a reason, I'm bipolar, suicidal thoughts are with me everyday. Either you make it or you don't, one day at a time baby, when it gets too rough minute by minute... that is how i cope.

Depends who wants to buy it. Some people will buy them to use them for a good sleep after a bunch of cocaine.. Some people will buy them to knock themselves out for a plane ride or a bus ride. At high doses 600 mgs or more they give off mild mdma like effects, if you dont get knocked on your backside. The pills themselves are almost worth 5$ each at the pharm.. So I would say they'd be worth about $5 or $10 on the street.

Currently I am taking 400mg Seroquel XR and 500mg Depacote ER 2x a day, no problems, so I would say yes.

no no no no, seroquel is an atypical-anti-psychotic med used for manic depression, schizophrenia, manic episodes. that kinda thanng, tho it will make u sleep n drunkish feeling, 25-50mgs:D be safe

Listen. Whatever you do, even if prescribed it, DON'T TAKE SEROQUEL! I took some from a friend yesterday, and I had to be sent home, and I think she might be getting arrested. I slept for 20 hours straight, and I'm STILL not able to react fast enough to things, my head still feels heavy, and my tongue is NUMB. Someone told me that you're supposed to start off at 50 mg, and the one pill that I took was 300 mg. Please, don't do it.

First, stay away from drug company sites. They don't seem to be very honest about side effects, their severity or how long they last. Secondly, your doctor may TRY to help but he or she only knows what the drug companies are claiming. Do a Google search and find an online med withdrawal support group. Drugs.com has some great resources and groups. I've heard of side effects lasting as much as a year. But then I've spoken to people who have had NO side effects (or withdrawals) at all. ~ T

i have found that the side effects of serouel (drowsiness restless feet etc...) last between 6 to 9 hours. however the antipsyhcotic effect seems to last right through the next day if you are taking your dose at night with your main meal side effects seem to hang on a little longer for some reason and may have trouble waking up next morning so i have tended to take my seroquel about an hour before my main meal and sleep right through the side effedcts.

It will test positive for benzodiazepines, as it is chemically related.
