I used to take Seroquel and would never take it again. It's poison to your blood sugar levels. Made me gain weight, too.

And once your on an antipsychotic and it's in your medical record, no doctor will ever consider anything is 'physically' wrong with you again...everything will be blamed on psychiatric illness.

Just my experience...

Completely agree with Elizzza. I was on Seroquel. It was a horrible drug, and doctors just assumed I was psychiatric for months while I declined. Was terrible. Would NOT recommend.

I've taken REALLY small doses of regular Seroquel (NOT the extended release form) for sleep as needed- that's what it says on my Rx label and why it was prescribed for me.
Has worked OK for me so far, with no noted side effects. My doc says though- keep the dose as LOW as possible.
