AP alternatives for seroquel re,weight gain

Posted by weatherfreak on October 13, 2010, at 21:01:47

Does anyone know which AP on the market which has a lower weight gain profile than seroquel, but is better for anxiety. Zyprexa is out of the question. Thanks guys!

maybe something old school, like low-dose perphenazine or low-dose loxapine?

What is the AP for? Bipolar or psychosis?

It's actually for sleep and anxiety for my sister who has Borderline Personality Disorder. She can't take benzo's and is on 300mg of Pristiq, and it doesn't matter what dose of seroquel, either standard or extended release, it's completely stopped working for her. It was great for her anxiety until she started ECT.

Has she tried Neurontin or Lyrica?

Has she tried any natural alternatives?
