User Reviews for Seroquel XR oral

I have been on Seroquil for almost 2 years. I was severly depressed for most of 12 years before my doctor gave Seroquil a try. Within a month I was feeling much better and was able to get off the numerous other meds I was taking - including a very heavy sleeping pill that didn't work a lot of the time. I take a total of 600 mg before supper along with Lamictol and Rivotril. My only problem with Seroquil is the weight I have gained because of it. But all in all it has been a savoir for me after being in such a dark place for so many years.Read More Read Less

AT FIRST IT SEEMED LIKE IT WAS WORKING BUT THEN LIKE 2 WEEKS IN IT GOT REALLY BAD I WAS HAVING ALOT MORE DEPRESSEN THEN I WAS BEFOR I WAS TAKING IT AND I WAS BEING REALLY MEAN AND NOT MY SELF AND GETTING ALOT OF SIDE EFFECTS

this medication has worked for me

Stopped Abilify because of extreme anxiety and increased Seroquel to 300mg at night. I haven't felt this good for over a year. I am calm now and not depressed. I hope this works for a long time because I have taken many drugs and they haven't worked for me. I also take Pristiq 50mg.

This is only my second day of taken it but i have severe dry mouth and just feel messed up.. will keep posted with the longer i take it

I have been taking anti-depressants for years and recently went into major depression. I went on 50mg of this less than a month ago and within two days it was like a light switch was turned back on. I have been feeling normal again. I have diabetes and my sugar levels were high before taking this, they are actually down now because I feel so good I have been taking walks and just eating better. I love it and am thankful to have found it!

it makes me tired i just want to sleep.i still have my mood swings and i want to argue and lose my temper .

I like the medication, it helps me with my blowing up at people, and made it easier for me to remember things. The only problem with me taking this type of the Seroquel is that I am supposed to take it an hour after I eat, but either I don't remember to take it, or I don't stop eating till like an hour before I eat dinner.

I have schizophrenia and this medicine has been prescribed as a 400 mg dosage and it helps me sleep and stops the voices. I also take abilify 30 mg and 3 8mg trifon pills a day, but I notice the difference when I went up from 300 mg of seroquel xr to 400 mg xr. anxiety and sleep returned to normal.

I had been taking Prozac for years, but still was suffering from many problems mentally, even thoughts of suicide, yet the doctors kept me on Prozac. I feel so fortunate to have finally found a psycopharmacolgist who put me in the right things and now I feel "human" again!

Have ben on small dose for 2 weeks at night for depression and anxiety. seemed to help get me motivated but have noticed unexplained flushing, legs going numb and heart palpitions at different times especially when I tried to increase dosage as DR recommended. Don't feel quite right.

AT FIRST I WAS TAKING 150 MG, I COULD HARDLY KEEP MY EYES OPEN, THEN INCREASED TO 300 MG, SLEPT ALL THE TIME, THEN 600 MGS,STARTING TO FEEL A LITTLE BETTER, DOSAGE INCREASED TO 800 MG, 400 IN AM, 400 IN PM ALONG WITH CYMBALTA AND WELLBUTRIN AND COGINTON AND LAMICTAL, I FEEL A LITTLE BETTER, FIND IT HARD TO GET OUT OF BED, BUT DONT HAVE SUICIDAL THOUGHTS ANYMORE

I was diagnosed with bipolar 1, mixed, about 6 years ago. Up until about 6 months ago I could not find the right medication that made me feel like myself again. I can finally sleep through the night and have much more focus with school and confidence>

I am diagnosed with Major Depression, General Anxiety Disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and ADHD. Seroquel has helped to relieve anxiety and depression for me; this med has also helped me to focus more clearly.

I am more confused about things than before I started this drug. I don't know where I am or who these people are, he say's he is my husband. I here voices, I feel fine and sleep well but don't know where I am. Is this normal? I have only taken three doses so far.

It manages my mood swinps ok but i have gained a good amount of weight. i have had 4 kids and got right back down to size and this is very discouraging. I also shake really bad, have bad headaches, racing thoughts, and i talk really fast before its time to take the medicine.

I have been taking Seroquel for almost a year now, I'm 17 years old and have been diagnosed with bipolar depression. When I began taking Seroquel I weighed 98 lbs now I'm at 121. I take it at night therefore I sleep well but towards that end of the next day my ankles and knees begin to hurt quite severly.

My 16yr old was told she is Biopolar and takes 200xr and either 25mg, 50 or 75 if she can't sleep, She now has trouble sleeping and can't get to school in the morning
