Seroquel/Quetiapine scary withdrawal symptoms?

Hi Joe, what dosage of Seroquel have you used in the last 20 years? I have been taking Seroquel 12.5 (half a pill of 25mg) every night, to help me sleep, for the last 1 1/2 years. Last week my PD took me off Seroquel and put me on Mirtazapine7.5 mg. She read some studies that indicate that Seroquel long term leads to Dementia and a propensity for stroke. Mittazapine is not helping me sleep as well as Seroquel did. No withdrawl symptoms form Seriquel yet..

Hi Mario,

I take one, 100mg Seroquel pill at night. I've been on doses as low as 25mg, but 100 seems to work best.

I've never tried stopping it because, well it works. I'm very active in the gym and very fit for my age.

That said, I think getting off any drug after long-term use will result in some adaption. That is best guided by a physician.

Joe
