Should I keep taking seroquel?

Question

I have been taking the drug for years. Two years ago they had be on 800 miligrams a day, but then they realized that it was hurting my body and lowering my white blood cell count so they gradually decreased the dose, and now I am taking 300. I have heard so many bad stories about the drug, and I am so TIRED or being TIRED! Some one please help me out?

Answer 1

You should NOT be trying to get the answer to a technical question like this, which affects YOUR HEALTH, from strangers  with unknown or non-existent qualifications over the Internet.

Find out as much as you can from reputable sources, discuss it fully with your physicians, and if you are not satisfied with the answers, ask for a second opinion, even if you live in one of those uncivilised countries where medical care has got to be paid for out of your own pocket.  NOTHING is more important than your health.

Answer 2

i'm not sure at all what Seroquel is, but i ahd to take some weird medicine for ever, and it wasn't doing much

you should probably see your doctor about it

he may be able to change the dose, or give you some info

but

usually you're SUPPOSED to take any medication a doctor prescribes you, for as long as you're suppsoed to, so keep taking it, but see your doctor

Answer 3

This is definitely an Issue to discuss with the prescribing doctor. If it is very troubling, the sooner the better. Seroquel is an anti-psychotic so do not self medicate. Take it as prescribed & call your doctor Monday morning & speak to the nurse.
