What Does Seroquel Look Like

I had been on a lot of opioid medication for several years and Seroquel at night for sleep. Two years ago I got off the pain meds but continued the Seroquel. Over the course of a couple of of months I developed worsening involuntary twitching and jerking of my legs at night. One afternoon I sat down to pay some bills and couldn’t even see right or sit still. I went to ER and they gave me some Ativan which put me back to normal for a few hours. The same symptoms continued. I looked back thru my daily journal and figured out the twitching and jerking started about 30 min after I took the Seroquel at night. I stopped the Seroquel for 6 nights and the movements went away. I took it on the 7th nite and it all came back with a vengeance. I stopped the Seroquel and have not had the probl...

would like to see what the seroquel XR looks like. ## want to see a photo of seroquel XR 300 ## I'm sorry, but I don't have a photo to post for you, due to copyright reasons. However, the 300mg Seroquel XR tablet should be yellow, elliptical and have the imprint of XR 300 on one side. This contains the active ingredient Quetiapine, which is an atypical antipsychotic that is used to treat Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder. It may cause side effects, such as: nausea, dizziness, sedation and weight changes. Learn more: Is there anything else I can help with?

I have been taking Seroquel for a year now for insomnia. Anybody else take Seroquel for this? I have looked around and it doesn't even seem that Seroquel is normally given to someone for this. ## I also have been taking seroquel for insomnia for about a year and a half now. I must say, my Dr tried every sleeping pill out there on me. This is the only thing that has worked for me, I've never had a sleepless night since. I was also being treated for panic attacks and depression at the time. But all my life I had trouble sleeping, I'm talking up till 5 or 6 am with a million things racing through my mind (stupid stuff) but not any more. My doc told me that in low doses, it does work on some people for insomnia. ## Good information ## My son has OCD and was put on Seroquel for s...

My Dr. started me at 300mg on Seroquel is this a safe dose. Im scared to take it. ## I have read that seroquel can be prescribed for up to 600 mg but I have never heard of 300 to start. My pdoc started me at 50mg for two nights, then Im supposed to increase it by 50mg every two nights until we get to 200 mg. Im a 5ft 5 1/2inc woman who weighs 130. Maybe the dosage is depending on your weight- I don't know. ## No. Seroquel, Seroquel XR and other meds have a dose schedule. Look for "prescribing info" from the manufacturer. For Seroquel XR the dose info is clear. The 1st day you take a low dose (50mg). Increase dosage each day. On day 4 take 300mg . If you miss a few days, lower your dose and start over. Take the smallest dose that works or do not take an Antipsychotic.

What do I take it for what is your dose and how long till it worked urgent help ## I personally haven't tried Seroquel myself, but if you're looking for more reviews on the topic there are a few other discussion threads here that I can introduce you to... This first thread has almost 100 responses relating to the side effects of Seroquel (particularly weight gain): Discuss/Seroquel-and-weight-gain-162991.htm The second thread seems to discuss a broader perspective of the drug and what other's experiences have been like while taking it: Discuss/Seroquel-163556.htm Hopefully you can find some of the feedback you're looking for in either of those discussions. Is this medication something your doctor recommended? ## I am teen how can i came fat please give me medicine ## I...

I have an orange, round pill with the letters QT on one side and on the other something that looks like a large V or maybe a thick arrow. Can someone tell me exactly what it is? I have a suspicion that it is a statin drug but i am not sure. ## I have since found out what the pill is from my doctor. It is Quetiapine aka Seroquel. ## Awesome, Joan! So glad you got an answer. It is an antipsychotic that is used to treat various types of mental disorders, and some forms of insomnia. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, weight changes, and mood changes. This tablet is manufactured and distributed in Canada. Is there anything else I can help with?

SLEEP ## Could you be looking for the drug Seroquel ? ## That is also my best guess. There are many instances where the spelling or understanding of a drug name is based on what someone has heard and it can vary greatly depending on how it was pronounced by the person they heard it from. ….not to mention the inherent ability of pharmacologists to make many spellings and pronunciations as confusing and odd as possible. :-) You can learn more Seroquel details here. Seroquel is actually an atypical antipsychotic that's most commonly used to treat schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, but since it can cause drowsiness as a side effect, it can help with insomnia, especially in cases where other medications have been unsuccessful. Other side effects may include nausea, sed...

I found a small baggie of pills. They are smaller than a graval and coated orange over a white inside. They have an arrow symbol on one side and QT on the other. ## sounds like you got yourself a bag of generic 25 mg seroquel , people use them to put themselves to sleep after a hard night of partying , and if your stay awake through the sleepy stage if the pill, you will trip the f*** out and its pretty fun ## found an small round orange pill with qt on one side and looks like an arrow on the other but dosent say the mg was wondering what they are? ## @Jessica, From what I could gather, there is a round peach/orangish colored tablet with QT on one side and > on reverse side, that contains 25mgs of Quetiapine (Seroquel).

Found a bottle of tizanidine filled in 2015. Will it be safe to take? If so, will it still work? Also can you take seroquel with tizanidine? ## This medication does not become dangerous once expired, but it may start to lose efficacy, according to FDA reports. They can be taken together, if they have both been prescribed for you, but you may experience more severe side effects than usual, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, and confusion. When was it filled in 2015? Usually, the expiration date is a year from the date it was dispensed to you by your pharmacy. ## It was filled 4/2014 and it says expires on 4/2015. Sorry looked at the expiration instead date filled, so I guess that tells me its too old, right? Thanks for taking time to reply. So are they really bad? ## I have a bootle ...

I want to know the Brand Names for Fludac 20 mg, Side Effects and Drug Interactions with other psychotropic medications including Prozac, Sertraline 50 mg (Brand Name Zoloft), Bupropion SR 150 mg (Brand Name Wellbutrin), Clonazepam 1 mg (Brand Name Klonipin), and Seroquel 300 mg. ## Fludac is one of the brand names, the active ingredient/generic is actually Fluoxetine. As to the other ones that may be available, it depends on what country you are in, but what you would want to look for or ask your doctor and pharmacist about are other medications that contain Fluoxetine. As to the Prozac, it is also actually Fluoxetine, so you wouldn't be able to use them both. If you use it with the Bupropion, the dosage has to be carefully adjusted, because it can increase the risk of seizures. Th...

content of the medicin ## Wow, I'm sorry, but I can't find anything listed under that spelling. If I look-up medications that can sound similar to this, there are quite a few possibilities: Sarafem, which contains Fluoxetine, an antidepressant. Serax, which contains Oxazepam, a Benzodiazepine. Seroquel, which contains Quetiapine an antipsychotic. Sirolimus, which contains rapmycin, an immunosuppressant. Suramin,for cancer treatment. As well as many others, listed under the letter C. Is there anyway you can double check the name or spelling? Do any of these seem close? ## purpose/dosage/how and when to take cyra - d 20 mg/side effects for female age 54. ## Any side effects for predmet 4 mg
