I have been taking Seroquel for some time now and I have been prescribed it to help with my mood swings. My doctor prescribed this at the same time that I was prescribed it for the first time, which worked well. I think I will have to try it again but at the same time my mood is improving and I feel better.

For patients who are prescribed Seroquel XR (quetiapine fumarate), their doctor may recommend a dosage range that is too high for the patient to tolerate and too low for the patient to be able to tolerate, thePatient Care Informationprovides a complete list of the risks and benefits of the drug, as well as information about possible side effects. The information isavailable onlinefor patients who are diagnosed with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar disorder, or for patients who have a history of drug or alcohol abuse or withdrawal. The information is not available for patients who are currently taking any medications.
Seroquel XR (quetiapine fumarate) is an atypical antipsychotic that has shown some benefit in treating schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and mania, including its use in the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) and in treatment of bipolar disorder (DQD) with psychotic symptoms. While some patients may benefit from using this drug, others may have adverse effects that require immediate medical attention.
Seroquel XR (quetiapine fumarate) has been shown to have a positive effect on several neurotransmitter systems, including dopamine and norepinephrine, and serotonin, and dopamine and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRI). These effects can be seen in some patients, and the drug has been shown to increase both dopamine and norepinephrine levels, and to reduce psychotic symptoms in some patients. The effect of Seroquel XR (quetiapine fumarate) on dopamine and norepinephrine may be additive when used in combination with lithium or other antidepressant medications. The mechanism by which Seroquel XR (quetiapine fumarate) may influence neurotransmitter levels is unknown. However, the drug can cause changes in drug levels that affect certain neurotransmitters. The drug can also have effects on blood sugar levels, blood pressure, and mood, and can have a positive effect on cognitive function and behavior in some patients.
While the drug has been shown to increase the risk of suicidal thinking and behavior, the drug can cause changes in the levels of certain neurotransmitters, including serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine, and serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SNRI). The effect of Seroquel XR (quetiapine fumarate) on these neurotransmitters may be additive when used in combination with other medications. The drug can cause changes in blood sugar levels, blood pressure, and mood, and may have a positive effect on cognitive function and behavior in some patients.
Other side effects that are possible include weight gain, dry mouth, constipation, weakness, dizziness, fatigue, weakness, headache, muscle pain, or an increase in prolactin levels, or seizures.
Seroquel XR (quetiapine fumarate) is given as a single dose, once daily, in divided doses with or without food. For patients with schizophrenia, the dose can be increased based on how well the patient responds to the drug. The maximum recommended dosing frequency for schizophrenia is once daily, but this can be increased if the patient is unable to tolerate the higher dose. For bipolar disorder, the maximum recommended dosing frequency is once daily, but this can be increased if the patient is unable to tolerate the higher dose. If the patient is taking other medications, such as lithium or other antidepressant medications, the dose of Seroquel XR (quetiapine fumarate) should be gradually increased to minimize the potential for side effects. For other mental health conditions, the usual starting dose for patients with schizophrenia is twice daily, but this can be increased as recommended by the manufacturer.
If you miss a dose of Seroquel XR (quetiapine fumarate), take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take two doses at once.
Medically reviewed by. Clinical study of Seroquel in the treatment of major depressive disorder. Seroquel is a well-known antipsychotic medication and has been used off-label for treating depression for quite a long time. Zyprexa, the brand name for isalone Seroquel in the United States, is one of the newer brand-name drugs with a newer formulation, which is a slightly different from the older Seroquel formulation. It is often preferred by individuals with severe depression because of its fewer side effects. Seroquel can be a helpful medication for individuals who do not respond well to other antidepressants, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) such as fluoxetine (Prozac), sertraline (Zoloft), or citalopram (Celexa). However, with the newer Seroquel formulation, there is a greater risk of serotonin reabsorption and a greater risk of decreased reuptake of serotonin. This increased reabsorption of serotonin may result in an increase in the availability of serotonin, and thus an enhanced ability to reach and stay in nerve cells. This enhanced availability of serotonin may also increase the sensitivity of nerve cells to the effects of the major depressive disorder, depression.
Precautions
Before taking Seroquel, it's important to discuss your medical history and current medications with your doctor. If you have a history of bipolar disorder (an abnormal mood response to lithium and other lithium-sparing treatments), schizophrenia, mania (symptoms of schizophrenia or bipolar disorder) in the past, or severe mental illness (eg, confusion, hallucinations) in the past that severely impact your daily functioning, then Seroquel may be considered. Also, make sure you inform your doctor about all the pre-existing conditions you may have (eg, heart, liver, kidney, or intestinal problems) and any medications you are currently taking. Also, inform your doctor if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant. Seroquel may harm the fetus or nursing baby. Make sure the doctor knows if you are taking it before you start taking other antidepressants, especially fluoxetine (Prozac) or sertraline (Zoloft). Also, inform your doctor about any other medical conditions you have (including a family history of bipolar disorder or depression) or about any allergies. Be sure to let your doctor know if you are taking any other medications, including over-the-counter (OTC) supplements, herbal products, and supplements with vitamins, vitamins, or minerals (eg, herbal products containing selenium, chromium, iron, zinc, magnesium, or chromium). Also, let your doctor know if you are taking any other medications right before you start using Seroquel.
Side Effects
Seroquel can cause side effects. However, they are generally mild and temporary. Common side effects of Seroquel include weight gain, feeling tired, or having a metallic or unpleasant taste in mouth. These side effects tend to resolve on their own without any treatment. However, with the newer formulation of Seroquel, there is a greater risk of serotonin reuptake and decreased reuptake of serotonin. This enhanced availability of serotonin may result in an increased sensitivity of nerve cells to the effects of the major depressive disorder, depression. Increased sensitivity to the effects of depression may result in depression, which can be treated with medication. However, increased anxiety and agitation, sleep disturbances, or difficulty falling asleep and waking up early have also been reported with Seroquel. For example, increased frequency of thoughts of suicide has been reported with Seroquel.
