In reply to Will Seroquel XR give me akathisia this time?, posted by tiopenster on July 3, 2010, at 14:02:10
>But my new doc said that Seroquel XR may be different. Seems like it would cause the same problem. What do you think? I would be taking a low dose of 50mg for anxiety.
It is certainly possible that Seroquel XR could cause akathisia. I would be very cautious with the dose.
What sort of anxiety do you suffer from? Seroquel is most appropriate for anxiety associated with bipolar disorder or psychotic illness. For other types of anxiety, other meds are usually preferred....but Seroquel can occasionally have a role.
