Special warnings about Seroquel
If you develop muscle stiffness, confusion, irregular or rapid heartbeat, excessive sweating, and high fever call your doctor immediately. These are signs of a serious--and potentially fatal--reaction to the drug. Be especially wary if you have a history of heart attack, heart disease, heart failure, circulation problems, or irregular heartbeat. Particularly during the first few days of therapy, Seroquel can cause low blood pressure, with accompanying dizziness, fainting, and rapid heartbeat. To minimize these effects, your doctor will increase your dose gradually. If you are prone to low blood pressure, take blood pressure medication, or become dehydrated, use Seroquel with caution. Seroquel also tends to cause drowsiness, especially at the start of therapy, and can impair your judgment, thinking, and motor skills. Until you are certain of the drug's effect, use caution when operating machinery or driving a car. If you are having problems with your vision, tell your doctor. There is a chance that Seroquel may cause cataracts, and you may be asked to see an eye doctor when you start Seroquel therapy, and every 6 months thereafter. Seroquel poses a very slight risk of seizures, especially if you are over 65, or have epilepsy or Alzheimer's disease. The drug can also suppress an underactive thyroid, and generally causes a minor increase in cholesterol levels. There is also a remote chance that it will trigger a prolonged and painful erection.
Other antipsychotic medications have been known to interfere with the body's
temperature-regulating mechanism, causing patients to overheat.
Although this problem has not occurred with Seroquel, caution
is still advisable. Avoid exposure to extreme heat, strenuous
exercise, and dehydration.
Recommended Seroquel dosage
ADULTS On the first day of therapy, you'll take 2 doses of 25 milligrams each. On the second and third day, doses are usually increased by 25 to 50 milligrams apiece. Frequency may be increased to 3 times daily.
Long-term, the usual dosage is 300 to 400 milligrams a day, taken as 2 or 3 smaller doses. Doses as low as 150 milligrams a day sometimes prove effective, and daily dosage rarely exceeds 750 milligrams. Doses of 800 milligrams or more per day have not been tested for safety.
Seroquel Dosage is increased more gradually--and is maintained at a lower level--for older adults, those with liver disease, those prone to low blood pressure reactions, and the debilitated.
Seroquel Overdosage
Any medication taken in excess can have serious consequences. If you suspect an overdose, seek medical help immediately.
Symptoms of Seroquel overdose may include:
Dizziness, drowsiness, fainting, rapid heartbeat
