In reply to Highest dose of Seroquel for anxiety?, posted by UgottaHaveHOPE on May 8, 2006, at 11:36:44
> Seroquel is now being prescribed for anxiety. I took it at 25mg for eight months and it worked real well, Recently, I have had something other stresses in my life, and the pdoc moved me up to 300mg before bedtime. As of right now, that does not calm me down. I was curious if someone took a higher dose and found anxiety relief? Thanks, Michael
Its prescribed for a lot of conditions. As you know already I take 1100 and I am going down back to 1000 I think for the time being. I recall someone mentioning doses as high as 1600. Its a very low potency at D2 (and other) receptor agents so it has such a wide variety of dosing. You don't really get a clinical dose with Seroquel monotherapy until about 300 or so. With SSRI and antipsychotic adjunctive therapy, the antipsychotic dose is usually smaller.
