Lifelong Seroquel use. What can be expected?

Posted by Lamdage22 on June 14, 2014, at 12:02:14

Now that Cannabidiol has this flaw of reducing brain proteins that are enhanced by many antidepressants i come to wonder what happens if you take Seroquel life long.

Movement disorder? Diabetes? What are the odds?

Please be realistic. I don't want anti Meds propaganda, i want to know the truth..

Interestingly, no one talks about this.

td is less common with Seroquel than with other atypicals, although I imagine dose would be an issue.

I don't know about the other effects, but diabetes, sure, why not? It certainly cause weight gain and effects blood sugar levels, though this can be mitigated by diet.

Well, Cannabidiol seems to diminish important brain proteins.

Maybe take a tricyclic to counteract?

I dont know.

This may be part of the therapeutic effect. In some models, BDNF is actually anxiogenic. Also, the active phase of psychosis may be associated with elevated BDNF.

Linkage, do you have links that prove your point of BDNF being a bad thing?
