Is anyone on Seroquel experiencing short term memory loss issues? My husband is on 100mg of Seroquel as well as Buspirone, and Lamictal for anxiety/depression and to help with sleep. Over the last few years he has been having memory loss problems but I don’t know if it’s due to meds (especially the Seroquel) or due to aging (he’s 79).

One quick note, not sure how long your husband has been on Lamactil, but I was prescribed this and got a terrible rash, apparently it is a potentially dangerous side effect in a small number of people, but I stopped it immediately and it went away. The dr looked scared when she saw it. Something to watch out for if he is new to the drug and no one has warned him.

I had memory issues, such as trouble remembering well known family members names, details at work, and trouble absorbing new information. It was the cognitive impairment and weight gain that made me wean off it. I got restless leg syndrome when my dr added valdoxin to cymbalta. I’m now off everything apart from 25mg of seroquel (from 600mg 2 years ago) which I am still weaning off. I’ve have mood swings, suicidal ideation and strong emotions coming off, but no mania, or anything else.
