In reply to Seroquel + Ginkgo Biloba = Huge ADHD Improvement, posted by BP2Guy on August 3, 2013, at 4:35:55
What an interesting idea. I don't really follow the science about all the receptor subtypes. I have noticed, however, two things: Seroquel, especially 400-800 mg/day, is excellent--almost an antidepressant--for bipolar disorder. I took it until I gained forty pounds and my mdoc and pdoc got together and said, "You cannot take this ever again."
As for ginkgo, I haven't experimented with it for ADD, which I don't have, but I am looking at it as a substitute of sorts for Adderall, which I was on for quite a while as an adjunct to the antidepressants. One thing I have noticed: The pills, which seem to just be capsules stuffed with dried gingko, seem less effective than the tincture. Perhaps the alcohol in the tincture extracts some active ingredient more efficiently?
