I want to know what would happen if Seroquel is prescribed to a man of 180lbs and this dosage is given to a woman of 110 pounds.

The most that will happen is you will sleep for about 12 hours. I have taken 3 50mg at one time and I am still here no problems

Drugs effect everyone differently, so even though you weigh more, what is an appropriate dose for one person is NOT necessarily safe for another person.

When you doctor prescribes a certain dosage, they have to consider many factors, including medication tolerance.

I take 500 mg of Seroquel for Bipolar, and al0so take 3 two milligrams of Xanax daily. (total of 6 mgs of xanax a day.

The only thing bad about Seroquel is the potential for diabetes and EXTREME weight gain.
