In reply to side effects of seroquel, posted by ginger C on February 24, 2004, at 16:23:17
> Can anyone tell me what to expect from seroquel? I was just started on it a few weeks ago and so far I feel a little more lethargic and sleepy. I also feel a little stupid does this sound familiar to anyone?
I am on Seroquel for insomnia and it helps a little with anxiety. I have treatment-resistant depression and terrible insomnia so I am on 300mg of it at night. As far as side effects, expect some sedation and lethargy - as you already have. At higher dosages weight gain can become a problem. I think those are the main ones - as far as feeling "stupid" - that may be just your brain adjusting to the new med....?
Good Luck!
Jerry
