How' s you experience with seroquel???

Question

what's your doese? what were your first side effect? for how long you taking it? do you recomend it??

Answer 1

I really did not like seroquel.  I gained a great deal of weight on it.  It made me really tired.  I only took 200mg, but the first time I took it I wet the bed because I was so knocked out.  I really hated being on seroquel.  I am on Abilify now and really like it.

Answer 2

I took it for sleep issues and I really liked it for sleep, it put me to sleep and I didn't feel groggy the next day...I took 50mg for bed and sometimes 100mg if needed.....

Answer 3

It's very sedating, probably the best sleep medication there is.  If I'm not cycled up, it leaves me groggy during the day.  I'm down to 62.5mg from 150mg.  Trying to get off but I start to have mood issues at a lower dose, and since I'd rather take this amount of Seroquel over increasing Depakote, looks like this is where I'll stay.  

It's a good med.  I just wouldn't want it to be my main med.
