Seroquel (quetiapine) 25mg 17 days			Schizophrenia (disorder of the thought process with hallucinations and delusions)	Delusions Drowsiness	Mostly it just mad me tired, I am supposed to take one a night and one whenever I hallucinate but it doesn't keep me from hallucinating... A couple of days ago, though, I was having a delusion where I couldn't tell if I was real and to prove I was I had to make myself bleed, so I broke a CD and slashed my leg a few times until I could taste the blood... I don't think I would have done it if not for the seroquel because I have no history of "self-harm" or delusions.	17	Female	11/13

Seroquel (quetiapine) 5 mg 7 days			Anxiety (fear or dread out of proportion to situation - often with restlessness, tension, pounding/rapid heartbeats, or rapid breathing)	Light-headedness/faintness Drooping eyelid Blood clot in a vein Blurred vision	I started taking Seroquel daily for anxiety, and even though I'm on a low dosage I noticed some scary side effects. The worst was rapid heart beat, but that seems to have all but disappeared after the "breaking in" period of the drug (a month). I have noticed that both eyelids are now drooping. At first I thought it was age related, but I have never had a problem with it before I started this medication...is there a connection and, if so, is it reversible if I switch to another med?	52	Female	11/03

Seroquel (quetiapine) 200 mg 45 days			Bipolar disorder (psychiatry diagnosis with rapidly changing moods - from depression to abnormal mood elevations)	Enlarged lymph nodes	Over night I after 30 days woke up with table tennis sized swollen spit glands under my cheak, and minor swollen glands under my ears. Throughout a week they have reduced to a third and stayed there. This size. Several blood tests, ekg etc ruled out several other reasons, including "parotis epidemica", which I never had. Specialist doctor tends to blame seroquel. The swollen nodes came a few days after shifting from seroquel to seroquel prolong. I also take a rising dose of lamictal (now 75 mg rsing every 2 weeks by 25 mg), with an end at 200 mg each evening. Wether its the seroquel, the lamictal, their combination or the whole cocktail of medications: 100 mg tecretol, 150 mg selo-sok, 20 mg corodil comp and the above mentioned on a daily basis.	54	Male	09/16

Seroquel (quetiapine) 400 mg			Bipolar disorder (psychiatry diagnosis with rapidly changing moods - from depression to abnormal mood elevations)	Dry mouth Heart palpitations	Have tried other Bipolar Meds and the side effects were intolerable. Seroquel has worked for years until recently I started having some serious heart palpitations at bedtime about an hour after I take the Seroquel. I'm thinking that my body is starting to reject the Seroquel. Looking for a new Doctor in the Houston area, hope to find one soon.	42	Male	07/04

Seroquel (quetiapine) 600 mgs 6 years			Bipolar disorder (psychiatry diagnosis with rapidly changing moods - from depression to abnormal mood elevations)	Drowsiness Weight gain EKG abnormalities - changes in the "T wave" Fast pulse/rapid heart rate that originates in the sinus node	Have been taking this drug off and on for 6 years. Have had Sinus Tachycardia for a good while now.. and today when I had a EKG done for Pre-op clearance it turns out now I have T Wave Inversions. So off to the cardiologist I go.. I had 2 Echos shortly after the sinus tachycardia started but they said that everything was normal.. Everything I have read about T Wave Inversions either points to Ischemia (lack of blood flow to the heart), a heart attack, or a blood clot to the heart.. I think I am too young to have any of these.. but I guess I get to find out..	32	Female	07/01

Seroquel (quetiapine) 900 mg.			Bipolar disorder (psychiatry diagnosis with rapidly changing moods - from depression to abnormal mood elevations)		I have taken seroquel many years. Now I am being treated for glaucoma and the eye doctor said to cut the seroquel by a third. I tried this but I'm unable to sleep & 300 mg. increases my tendency to become manic.I have also been diagnosed with arthritis. I am currently being treated for heart disease. I have an implantable cardiac defibrillator and history of ventricular tachycardia and nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy. I suffer from frequent UTI infections, headaches and some problems too numerous to mention. However, my age is most probably a factor in part of this equation along with the addiction to seroquel.	64	Female	06/26

	Comments(1): 10/30 05:11 The least of your problems is Lovenox. This combination of psychotropic drugs is ridiculous and dangerous. Physicians who prescribe like this should have their licenses taken away.
