In reply to Upping Seroquel questions..., posted by sheilac on May 3, 2011, at 13:40:06
that dosage of seroquel probably isn't doing much, other than helping put you to sleep. So i don't think it is directly causing a problem, but the underlying problem isn't really being dealt with on that regimine.
Also, seroquel and its metabolite function as alpha2 antagonists, like mirtazapine. This is probably not the best for ADD or irritability. So i would suggest a different drug to target that. Have you tried an NRI. guanfacine might be good for irritability, but not energy or depression. an anticonfulsant might be good for irritability & mood.
