In reply to HELP - Seroquel or Brexiprazole, posted by linkadge on April 16, 2021, at 18:56:52
> My mother is in BAD shape. She is currently on brexiprazole and valproate for bipolar and doing terrible. We are considering ECT and/or more hospitalization.
>
> Her current symptoms are low appetite, anhedonia, headaches, GI symptoms, stomach pain, etc. To ANYBODY who can compare brexiprazole vs. seroquel.....
>
> If you had hardcore melancholic symptoms (anxiety / insomnia, GI problems, anhedonia) would you chose brexiprazole or seroquel?
>I don't know anything about brexpiprazole (Rexulti) except that it is similar to aripiprazole (Abilify) and cariprazine (Reagila). However, given that it is not working, given that more is not merrier with these drugs, and given that she has low appetite, I would try quetiapine (Seroquel) of the two, but why not lurasidone (Latuda)?
