Link between Seroquel and Heart Problems?

I understand this may be a little late of a reply.

I know everyone here seems to be talking about tapering off Serequel, but I was on 800mg for about 8 years. When I decided to come off I stopped without tapering. I just threw the pills away and prepared for a crap time.

The withdrawal lasted about 3 days and after 2 weeks I was ready to continue construction work. For a family member. I'm sure it may not be the same for everyone else, but I can only speak to my own experience.

I'm definitely not a medical professional. But the choice was simple for me. Potentially fatal heart problems or a bad withdrawal.

To be honest it was a mild withdrawal in comparison to other drugs iv had to come off.

Did you have itching during withdrawal? If so did anything help?

That is very brave of you wish I could do the same. The stories about not slow tapering are horrific but I don’t have the patience to go 15 months. I have been on 300/400 six years for insomnia and depression
