scared but i need to do it ... TACHARDIA OF SEROQUEL ABOVE 225 MG
i need atleast to take 400 - 800 MG, for this lamictal induced psychosis to be possible reversed, wich i dont knowit gives me seizures also, sedation, pannick attack, and tachardia, my plan is to take 25 mg extra each day until i reach 400 mg
now i dont like having the tachardia side effects each night in the hospital, i need a place like the ocean and beach where i can think about my life, because this is madness, my objective is to REVERSE LAMICTAL INDUCED PSYCHOSIS WITH SEROQUEL HIGH DOSAGE :(

When I first tried a combination of Parnate + desipramine, my heart rate was 120. I really didn't notice it after awhile. I considered the payoff to be worth it. The metabolite of Seroquel and desipramine share the property of NE reuptake inhibition. Tachycardia should be more noticeable at 200mg than at 100mg, but it probably won't get any worse once you reach 400mg. Hopefully, after some time your rate will come down, but will still be somewhat elevated.
Let us know at what dosage your heart rate plateaus. Maybe it won't go any higher than it is now.

225 mg - 400 mg 600 mg (hardcore heart attack)
many have gone to the ER because of seroquel tachardia, i have it very badly, like having a real heart attack, is this normal? it's not just a bit elevated heart pulse, its hardcore heart rate

Mines 130 and thats without any medication lol. I find tachycardia to be a bit scary in the sense of i can't stop wondering just how much it's going to shorten my life in the long run... i would assume a heart running at 130bpm is going to wear out faster than one beating at 60 or so.
If it's a problem though can't the docs give you some beta blockers to slow the heart rate down when u are on the seroquel ?

Hi Jeroen,
You need to go up very slowly.
I had tachardia too when I was upping Seroquel. When your body becomes used to it, it fades. Then you can up it again. Going up in 25 mg increments is a good idea. But I'd wait two days in between.
I was on 900 to 1000 mg of Seroquel last year.Best wishes,

Jeroen if you're in hospital what does your doc say? Isn't he the one who would increase your dose of seroquel? Could you ask for an EKG to see if you're okay? Love Phillipa

Jeroen yes meds can cause taccycardia could be sensitivity to med or ever hyperthyroidism. Included link to article. Now make sure you skip to the common causes as this lists meds and hyperthyroidism. Please just ask you doc . Not to worry. Phillipa

Jeroen did you read the part about med sensitivity to the med? Could over a certain dose not be good for you? Not being your doc I wouldn't know. Please discuss it with him/her. Okay? love Phillipa

Hi Jeroen,
You're welcome!
Yes mine lasted something like an hour (but sometimes a little longer). Also, kick the coffee out! After about two months the tachardia faded away.Love,

Hi Jeroen,
In a way. Felt like heart wanted to pound out of chest. However uncomfortable, I didn't think it was like a heart attack.
Could it be due to the combination of meds you take?What else besides Seroquel?

Hi Jeroen,
Well I'm sorry to hear Abilify is giving you such a rough ride. It doesn't really surprise me though, as Abilify might increase dopamine.
Why don't you ask your Dr. for Dipiperon? It's an old anti-psychotic but quite effective. However, you'll also have to go through the heart palpitations on this one.
Or ever tried Tryptizol (amitryptiline)? It's a tricyclic AD from the old book, but very effective for calming down and cheering up. It didn't cause tachardia for me. If it wasn't for Sjogren's Syndrome, I would still be on this one...
Good luck. And remember, people do care.
Love,
Maria
