This Drug is not approved for anyone under the age of 18.I say that because I read that it is being prescribed to children.How can anybody be so irresponsible.Thats criminal.I wonder how many children under State care are being given the drug.They are supposed to be taking care of these children.These drugs should never have been approved by the FDA.I can’t believe the horror stories I have read about Drugs intended for Adult use being given to children.Thats insane.State Agencies should know better and adults should Never give them to their children no matter what a doctor says or thinks.There should be a Class Action Lawsuit for Parents that have their kids under temporary care of their state that prescribed this drug for there kids.The same goes for giving it to Elderly people .Their bodies can’t cope with it.

I failed to mention in my last post that my mother was only 58.

My mother passed away 2 weeks and 2 days ago. I am uncertain at this point how long she had been taking Seroquel, but all of the things that she has been experiencing for awhile, I am 100% this drug shortened my mother’s life. It should be taken off the market. My mother was having blackouts, pain in her back and knees, she could barely stand for more than 5 min. She was having shortnes of breath, she was so tired she could barely eat to regulate her high blood sugars. My mom in the past year had signs of not remembering programs she had watched and conversations she had had with her chldren, The night before the morning of her death she awoke at 2:26am delirious and and confused. Her blood sugar was high. She fell back to sleep and never woke up. Her symptoms had been going on for months and everything became worse…and worse…my mom would be so tired she couldn’t eat a full meal without falling asleep and at times my brother and sister stated she would fall asleep right infront of them with food in her hands. she was confused alot. Fainting is reported with this drug. She was on 800 mg a day. She also had cataract surgery, which is reported as well. I don’t feel that any physcian should even prescribe this drug to a person on diabetes. Prescription suicide!!! my mother also gained weight and complained about that often. NO one should be using this drug from the research I have been discovering.

I write this in concern of my father . My father has been prescribed Seroquel for many years during this time he has attempted suicide several times.

i was on serquel 300mg and my blood glucose went to 1472 in january of 2009 and found out i was now a diabetic type 2 my doctor took me off the serquel and my blood glucose came down and now i live with the diabetes

I have been taking seroquel for the last 4 months. I am currently on 400mg at night and 100mg of Piramax for the migraine headaches. I used to have daily migraines before starting the meds but since starting them I have not had a single migraine. I am 1.6m tall and used to weigh about 36 to 38 kg. I was never able to pick up any weight no matter what I did. I have to note here as well that I had a thyroidectomy at the age of 22 due to an extreme overactive thryroid that did not respond to medication. I now weigh about 45kg. No more being underweight for me! For 15 years I was treated with antidepressants and it made my life a living hell. I am now 39. Eventually found a doc that was willing to listen to me and found out that I was having a bad reaction to the serotonin stuff in the meds – had a mini stroke because of Zoloft. The doc admitted me to hospital and changed my meds to the current ones and slowly increased my meds until we found a level that worked for me. For the first time in my life I am feeling like a normal human being and I can sleep, think and concentrate. I would normally go for 72 hours without sleep during a manic phase and physically exhaust myself completely just to be able to sleep for an hour or two. On a “normal” day I would go to bed, close my eyes and sleep but stillbe aware of everything that is going on around me. I am bipolar manic, anxiety disorder and borderline schizophrenic as well as ocd. I have made a point of drinking lots of water during the day and to stay away from anything that is a quick “pick me up” like caffiene, chocolate or refined sugar. I have found that when I do have something like that I tend to get extremely hungry and irritated. So I avoid it all together. Maybe it helps somebody else out there as well. I am just happy that I have found something that works for me and I hope that everybody else will also find what works for them. And that I found a doctor that is responsible and takes the responsibility for his patients and does what is best for them. The previous ones I had definitely did not do that.

I am currently taking 500 mg of Seroquel in the morning and 500 mg at bedtime. I have been taking Seroquel for at least 3 years. I also have experienced problems with weight gain, cholesterol and other lipids. The weight gain was not an issue with me because compared to what I gained when I took Zyprexa this was nothing. However, I have been trying to lose weight and it just seems impossible. I am wondering if the Seroquel might be hindering my attempts? Also, I seem to be taking a very large dose of this med. Is anyone else taking 1000 mg a day?

My son was put on 10 mg in the am and 200 mg at bedtime just 3 weeks ago for a possible mood disorder. He already wants no part of it. He can’t stay awke at school. After reading all these posts I’m scared to death. His doctor says its a great drug. I’m thinking about taking him off but dont know what the happen. any suggestions? can you do it cold turkey or do you have to ween yourself off?

My name is Gracie, I was placed on Seroquel in 2006 . something is not right, for years i have not been able to sleep after a sleep study at night no results where found so they did a day study they said it was a sleep disorder that i needed to take seroquuel to sleep and concerta to keep awake threw the day. I also suffer from depression PTSD from years of abuse as a child. I have tried all kinds of meds for sleep and my panic dis, no results anyway i started Seroquel, I could sleep ! the past 7months i have gotten worse very tired mood swings, muscle pain nosebleeds weight gain 38 pnds bowl problems stomach pin and bloating not feeling well at all my eye sight is know bad have growth over my eyes not sure if its cateracs . but sense all this I have dropped my dose more than half want to get off of this drug ,and i wont sleep but at least im alive god help us all.

Lets make this easy. If you are a researcher for the drug company or involved in the FDA approval process or attorney or family member of those listed or work for Astra Zenica and take Seroquel, just raise your hand. Why spend 600 million thus far to prove how good it is for you? Just raise your hand…Case closed….drug taken off market, those injured compensated. Do it again and we will make you and your children take the drugs

I totally agree with Steve from Sydney. My VA psychologist prescribed seroquel about two bottles ago @ 25mg for sleep and hallucinations. I feel like I am roasting most of the time, sweat all night and my energy level has dropped significantly. I feel like I want to sleep all day and have no idea what my cholesterol is like. Currently taking simvastatin 80mg already. I suffer from depression and PTSD from my military service. I have tried marijuana recently and found it to work just like Steve put it. I could replace all my other medications with one natural herb with which there is no known toxicity, except I would be considered a criminal. I do not understand this world. Because of money people cannot heal themselves, because of money people have to go to a foreign country and slay thousands, because of money pharmagiants can feed people pills that kill. nuff sed

i started taking seroquel in 2004 for bi polar issues. i started with low doses but now by october 2008 i was put on 800 mg a day i gained weight had all kinds of side effects. i went to the doctor for blood work and was diagnosed with type 2 diabeties. there is no diabeties in my family history. now i have to take 3 other types of meds for my diabeaties. my life has become totally unmanageable i am currently on social security disability who ever you are dont ever take seroquel it will ruin your life in very horrible ways frank p

I’m Apparently “Bipolar”. I been on 400mg for past 2Weeks. Pains in the Chest both sides. Dry Mouth & Throat. Sweating heaps under Armpits. (Never have before) & it’s Winter here. Now I’ve Seen this thread …. OMFG!! I’m exteremly worried. Cannabis seems to Work Very Well & Keeps me Balanced … Cannabis Stops the Suicidal Thoughts. But NO , I’m a Criminal the Govt Say & Face being sent to Prison if I grow 2 plants. Drs have Also Recommended I use Cannabis. The System is A Total Mess.

My husbands doctor prescribed him seroquel for bipolar. The doc wanted him to get to 2000mg. At 1400mg he ended up in the hospital. He almost died. His kidney’s started to shut down. He now suffers severe memory loss and health issues due to seroquel.

Seroquel is a strong drug, prescribing 25mg alone can put you to sleep and 30+ lbs over time( Me) But you guys say your doctors gave you 200-300mg thats suicide. That can surely cause death and it will always affect air and blood flow to the head. If you take that much then you will surely gain atleast 60 pounds mostly in the stomach, and it should really kill you but if you are healthy then you wont feel any side effects for a while. It will be sudden. Those of you who took blood test and see problems, stop immediately. 25mg is enough and if your body is weak take half of that. A doctor must never give a old person or someone who is a bit weak such a strong drug and in such high quantity.

One year ago July 11 2008 I was hospitalize into ICU VA Hospital Indiana for being a walking coma with a glucose blood count of 905 I did not know why until the doctor told me I have diabeties I was shock it dose not run in my family as being a carry of the deadly decease. I did some research and found out that It was the seroquel I had been given by the VA Hospital Indianapoplis, Indiana when I told them they denied it and thank to CNN New July 22 when it was broadcasted worldwide

does anyone know of it’s link to a high suicide rate iv’e never attemted im 39 well since feb 09 iv’e tried twice both times w/my quill DO NOT DO THIS! EVER! but im thinking ther is more to this crappy drug then diabetes??

I ‘am going on age 17 and over 2 years ago my parents had forced me to take this evil, toxic drug. it was as if i was an experiment subject for the docs, like a lab rat. Now days, i currently have type 1 diabetes.

My husband was admitted to the senior behavioral assesstment hospital.he had parkinsons’ dementia and he was given haldol as well as seroquil and I explained he should not be on Haldol but he said he was combative and continued to give it to him.Hia feet and ankles started swelling so bad and I made a issue about it . Every time I wud visit he was drugged and was so thirsty and wanted to go to the bathroom. They the staff got so mad because he wanted to go to the bathroom. He was so confused he did get angry. They had him in a diaper all the time and didn’t have baths for days at a time.Eventually they were increasing his seroquil and he went down so fast , He was drugged every time we went there. within 3 weeks he was rushed to the emr of the other hospital and they said he didn’t have a pulse when he got there, he was gone. they said he had heart attack . So because these doctors are administering drugs they do not know enough about. If I have my way about all of this I will not let anyone of these senior citizens suffer from that treatment again,Good luck to all of you fighting your diseases. Try to get off of the medicine before you all die too.

I just took Seroquel for 5 weeks. My stomach and chest are hurting badly. I just went off it. I don’t know what to do or who to see. Nobody is understanding that this is really hurting me. I’m nervous. I don’t feel right. Something is wrong with my stomach and causing me pain. I took it for insomnia and mild depression due to economy. Now I’m worse off with health issues. I should have drank tea and gone to accupuncturist for stress. I don’t feel good.

My husband was unhappy & having anxiety attacks. The doctor told him he was experiencing depression. This was in December. He was prescribed Seroquel, an anti-psychotic. He was not schizophrenic & was healthy & mental well all years previously. After being on it for only a week, he was sleeping most of the day & felt groggy & disoriented upon wakening. His mood did NOT improve. After 4 months on the drug, he put a bullet into his head. I am now a widow after almost 25 years. Read these posts.

Since starting Seroquel, I have gained over 50 pounds and have not been able to lose it. I fear that I am now dependant on it because it helps me sleep. I have tried all other drugs in the same classification and also other sleep aids, but am always forced to return to Seroquel. Treating my Bipolar has been a real bitch these past 10 years and since starting Seroquel I’ve had mixed results. Nightmares, lucid dreams and weight gain versus being able to fall asleep. Sometimes waking after the dreams I get leaves me shaken all day to the point that I can’t focus at work. I’m running out of drugs to try. Feels like I’m stuck with the extra weight and nightmares, theres no alternative it seems.

I have taken seroquel for about five years 300mg nightly. I have been having a lot of health problems breathing ,anixeity,heart,weight gain , and other issues.

May God have mercy on those in the FDAwho approved seroquel.

I took it for 7 years and I gained over 80 lbs in about 5 years plus im a borderline diabetic….I hope that they have to take it off the market.

I have been on Seroquel for several years. I think it is a wonderful medicine. Anti-depressant meds had terrible side effects. I am bipolar. Since taking Seroquel, all of my bipolar issues have disappeared. I am no longer depressed. I sleep great at night. No adverse side effects at all. I have actually found that I lost weight after I started Seroquel, so not everyone who takes it gains weight. I was in seriously bad shape for about 10 years until I got put on this magic drug.

I have been taking 600 mh of Seraquil every night for sleep for 10 years know. I have lost all sensation in both my feet and gained 200 lbs. All i eat is raw beets and water and i still can’t loose the weight. I run ( waddle ) 12 miles 6 times a week and I still love St Alphonono’s Pankake Breakfast with Nanook – Goos luck myt fellow fellowe

I have NEVER weighed more than 140 but am usually 120. Now I am 180 a year after starting seroquel. I started at a 25mg dose and ended on a 600mg dose before I was told to stop immediately because I had the first seizure of my life last week. I have unvoluntary hand movements, weight gain, a diabetes worry, very high cholesterol, and many more issues including various pain throughout my body and swollen feet. Since doctor told me to stop immediately, I’ve already started losing weight and haven’t even started working out yet. I hate the drug though and do not recommend it to anyone.

My post will probably not be posted since I do not have a negative thing to say about Seroquel, except the extreme hunger and craving of sweets, but even that has not caused me any undue weight gain. I suffer from scleroderma with secondary pulmonary arterial hypertension along with lupus and other auto immune diseases. Due to these conditions, sleep eluded me. My rheumatologist put me on a low dose (25 mg) of seroquel to help me sleep 3 years ago. It has done it’s job, no more, no less, with no increase in dosage. My blood work shows no ill effects from the drug and is checked and monitored very closely by my doctor. It concerns me that so many people in the posts I read were taking such large doses to sleep. I can possibly understand the large doses for bi-polar conditions or schizophrenia, but not just sleep. My sleep is good on 25 mg. without feeling groggy in the morning. Any drug can be dangerous if not used properly. It is up to our doctors to prescribe medications properly. If they are unsure about the side effect of a particular drug, then it should not be prescribed, especially to the elderly. It is also up to us to be in charge of our own healthcare. When your doctor prescribes something, ask about the side effects. If the doctor does not know them or if they are too unpleasant for you, ask you doctor to make an alternate choice for you and keep doing it until he/she gets it right. Afterall, they DO work for you.

All i have to share is while I was on Seroquel is that my A1C was through the roof! My physicians prescribed this for me and i took it as I was told. I slept for days on this drug. Now that I’ve taken myself off, I can’t get to sleep without a miracle from God. My body seems like it’s attacking me and I’m so fatigued. I feel like an 80 year old. This is absolutely poison.

When my daughter passed away on March 5th 2008 she had diabetes very bad , she was on seroquel and she took a fatal cocktail overdose of alot of meds and she ended her life. She was awfull on seroquel we didnt know her as the same person her bi-polar had gone from bad to horrible she couldnt stay awake etc. Please Dont take this drug it is not safe. Yeah they tell you its OK but it is not. She left 4 children whom miss her so much. A wasted life because of this Drug. If you have any questions about this drug serch the internet it will tell you.

My father was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease and given the usual medication. Then he became delusional and the doctor put him on Seroquel. Even though he was healthy and had no other medical problems, he became almost paralyzed, and then died from cardiac arrest about 3 months later. He had all the symptoms of neuroleptic malignant syndrome. Seroquel was not approved for use with elderly patients with dementia at the time, in fact it was recommended NOT to use it. How could the doctor have been so uninformed? The doctor said cause of death was “Lewy body disease.”

I was put on both Zyprexa and later Seroquel for a bipolar disorder. Weight gain, a cholesterol disorder, increased alcohol and mania followed. I have finally found a psychiatrist who was able to see that the environment and wrong meds were my problem and have gone off all atypicals. I read the recent article in Rolling Stone magazine exposing Ei Lilly and others. I have been an advocate and healer in the field of mental health for many years. Seeing all the vulnerable individuals who have been victimized by these toxic drugs has enraged me! I don’t want to get mad (never a good idea for a bipolar person!) I want to get EVEN!

2 years agiI was in love with a great guy who was prescribed Seroquel, a month later he committed suicide..yes he had depression and had tried before but he changed dramatically and wanted to stop taking it but the nurse prac. and the counselor both told him not to stop taking it…I have since talked to two other people that have taken this drug and they have also said they had severe reactions to it…one said it messed with his mind and the other ended up in the hospital after feeling like she was going to die because her heart rate slowed down so much. The FDA needs to make sure of these drugs and the doctors need to research these kind of drugs before they just prescribe them to just anyone.

SINCE I BEEN TAKEING SEROQUEL OFF AND ON FOR OVER15YEARS AND HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH diabetes TYPE 2 .. I DEVOLPE THIS HUGER ITS HORRIBLE AM ALREADY OVER WEIGHT…START AT 25MG IN 1996 THEN THE OLD I GOT THE MORE MG I WAS GIVING THE TRY TO GIVE ME 1500MG A DAY GOOD THING FOR MEDCAICD WOULD NOT PAY FOR IT SHORT AFTER MY FEET WAS SO BIG I WAS PUT IN THE HOSPTIAL FOR ONE WEEK TOLD ABOUT THE DIABETES . STILL GIVEN SEROQUEL 400MG AT BEDTIME WHEN I TOLD MY DOCTOR SHE INCREASED IT TO 600MG TWICE DAILY ANYONE ..GAINING WEIGHT IT LIKE 125POUNDS

Since I started taking Seroquel I’ve packed on over 40lbs in 5 months!! I have never been this heavy and NEVER gained weight so fast in my life. Althought I crave sugar, I can’t attribute all the weight to extra calories. The weight is also almost all in my midsection which is extremely unhealthy. I also have severe heartburn and RLSI can’t go off of it or I suffer severe withdrawal symptoms and can’t sleep. I wish I never would have started on this drug..

i was diagnosed with bi polar disorder in march of 2007 . i had just detoxed off of a number of narcotics. i started originally on 25mg of topamax , gradually having my dose moved up by 25mg until i was at 75mg. i was placed on seroquel in april of 2007 50mg to ‘stabilize’ any mood swings, within a month i was up to 100 mg of seroquel and exsperencing nosebleeds almost every day. my MD told me this was normal and to look else where in my history for an explanation . within 4 months i was taking 150mg of seroquel a day. when i found out i was pregnant in late 2007 i asked my MD to lower the dosage of seroquel as it passes threw the placenta in to the fetus,”due to the extra plasma in my blood at the time ” it was altered by 100mg more after i had my child instead of lowering my medication it was upped again too the new long lasting seroquel as it stands i’m on 500mg long lasting seroquel in just over 2 years of being diagnosed & 00mg topamax, since then I’ve been diagnosed with thyroid disease as well and high cholesterol neither of which i had before and i routinely get checked. to this day i still get nose bleeds that last for up to thirty mins followed by migraines, migraines that last for days, dizzy spells, confusion, forgetfulness, muscle cramps, muscle spasms, occasionally blackouts and recently partial seizures. in no medical dictionary is it written that seroquel is a mood stabilizer nor is it to be prescribed for bi polar disorders but i suppose I’m not a professional so i wouldn’t know

I was prescribed Seroquel for Bi-Polar Disorder in 2000. I did not take the drug regularly until I had an episode late in 2007. The doctors had me on a dose of 800mg initially. They dropped it to 600mg. In August, I had a horrible reaction to Seroquel that caused me to lose all mobility by developing tardive dyskensia. I am now highly succeptible to that side effect. Had may partner not recognized what was happening, the outcome would have been worse.

My husband was bipolar and i would say about 5 years ago he was put on seroquel. He started out as doing fine but he was not able to sleep so they increased his dosage. after the increase he began sleep walking and he would speak about things that made no sense during the day. He never had these problems untill seroquel. On dec 8th 08 he passed away of a heart attack. He was 39 years old and the cause of death was listed as seroquel by the coroners office and also on his death certificate. His daily dosage was 1200 mg a day. (600mg in the morning and 600mg in the eve. ) i blame the people who made this medication because if it wasnt for them he would still be here for his three children. (He did have a heart condition no one knew about but seroquel caused his heart attack) Seroquel took my husband dont let it happen to you to. Thank you for your time. Tammie

I am 38 yr old female in may 2003 I was diagnosed Bi-polar (depressed w/severe anxiety.I went through the pill mill and ended up with Seroquel, Topamax, and now klonipin.Since Sept 2003 I have been taking Seroquel.Since this time I have watched my health go down like I was 80. Shortly after being on Seroquel I was put on Inderal La to regulate my heart rate then 3 surgeries to remove cyst .My teeth were horrible all of a sudden know I have dentures.I was gaining weight and no matter what I did could not get it off applied for S0ocial security still fighting that cholesterol then heart attack jan 2008.This year moderate body swelling just had multiple test because my lymphoid is swollen as well and just found out I have hypothyroidism.I currently take 15 meds a day almost as many as my grandmother who has leukemia.To this day I have gained 125 lbs and I eat no more than the days before I was diagnosed the only difference is I sleep more and have no energy and I know part is the heart attack but I am 38 and I feel so old.

My 15 year old daughter was prescibed seroquel 3 months ago and she has had horrible side effects: bleeding nose, fainting, rapid pulse rate and also a faint pulse.She has been diagnosed with acute dystonia as well. Her muscles have become very rigid and she aches all over.She has had hallucinations and nightmares.I do NOT recomend this drug and have since taken her off of it.She is till suffering from the muscle rigidness.Also a concern of ours is that her ca125 levels came back raised after taking this drug.ca125 is a marker for breast and ovarian cancer.I am waiting her ultrasound results as i write this.

Seroquel is a horrific drug. My son started taking it 8 years ago. He was in good physical health. He was bipolar and was given different drugs but he seemed to reallly like the Serloquel and said he was addicted to it. He could not sleep without it. Within the 8 years he developed insulin dependant diabeties. He gained approximatly 200 lbs. He has been in and out of hospitals and not for psych reasons. All medical related. He was hospitalized for pancreatitis last year. He was admitted to the hospital early in the morning of Feb 12, 2009. He was complaining of pain in his abdomen and said he felt like he did when he pancreatitis. They ran tests and took xrays. His triglycerides were over 9,000. I talked to him that night on the phone and he sounded very medicated. Duladid every 4 hour and 800 mg of Seroquel a day. They said he had gallstones but were not going to treat them now. Feb 13, 2009 the Dr.s made rounds and wrote discharge instructions for him. He had been up walking around and by 10:36 am he was pronounced DEAD. His pancrease DIED. He was 37 years old.

I have been taking seroquel for about 5 years. I have had weight gain and back and belly pain. I am on 600mg at bedtime. I have severe pain and my belly is so swollen I actually look like I am pregnant. My gain is only in the belly. I cannot have a bowel movement without enough misc over the counter medicine to give an elephant a good bowel movement. Even after all the meds I have 1-2 movements and they are not very productive. The following day or 2 and it is back to the severe swelling. I have went to the ER and no help was given. Even after 2-3 weeks with out a movement, no help was given. I also have the gambling and obsessive disorders that I have read about in these postings. So much of this info hits home. I just am concerned about the pain and a solution. If there is help out there, whether it be a lawsuit or a solution I am all for it. I have takaen so much time away from my family, especially my 2 little ones, because of the pain and embarrassment of looking like I do with my belly. That time cannot be regained.

I have been taking seroquel for about 3 to 4 years.And have gained 60 lbs. And in 2008 developed diabetes.My sugar with medication is still between 200 to 300 everyday.Diabetes has changed my whole life for the worse

I’ve been taking Seroquel on a trial basis. I was diagnosed as being bipolar and the medicine was to help me sleep. I later read that it can also cause suicidal thoughts. I had a situation where I was severly depressed for a week straight and got to the point where I thought ending my life would be the best route. One night I drank half a bottle of Bacardi then decided to take 28 sleeping pills. I refused to go to the hospital because I did not want to be put in a psych ward so my husband and friends made me throw up. It helped because I woke up the next day. But the thoughts still come when I get down and had my doctor told me these were one of the risks I would never have started taking them. Even though I haven’t seen my doctor in almost 6 months, he gave me enough to where I could make them last and to be taken when need be. My husband is really concerned because he’s scared one day he will come home to a dead wife.

got diabetts after taking this drug.

I started on a low dose of Seroquel as directed by my doctor to help me sleep. I was already on Lamictal and Effexor for Bi-Polar. I was to gradually increase the dosage over time. While I was on the low dosage, I started experiencing extreme violent nightmares. I was immediatley taken off Seroquel. I would wake up angry and very defensive several times a night. Has any one else experienced this situation????
