My cousin, she is very beautiful, very active in the gym and even takes gymnastics and cheerleading. She's managed to gain 150 pounds after 3 years of Seroquel. She's been now diagnosed as a Diabetic. She ate normally jsut a bit, always has and still does til' this day. But does Seroquel cause excessive weight gain? Does it make some of you guys more of the munchy monster type? Should we get a lawyer?

Your not alone I've gained 60 pounds on that crap.And then my doctor says I'm diabetic.Hell yes you should get a lawyer,I did and my case has already been filed in court.They are going to pay for what they have done to me.My doctor says he did'nt know of the side effects,do you think he lied?He might be scared I'll get his ass to.If any one has found a good way of losing the weight please let us all know.And does anyone get up at night and don;t remember it?

All the doctors know is the bogus sales pitch they get from AstraZeneca drug reps. My doctor said after I quit Seroquel "don't you want to be happy again like you were (when I was a 300 pound pig)?". The only way to lose weignt is to quit Seroquel, your appetite will go down and exercise will be alot mor appealing when you don't feel like crap all the time. You will discover that there is 6 hours between 6am and noon, and alot can be done during that time if you're not hungover on Seroquel every morning.

does Seroquel only increase your appetite or does it effect your metabolism as well?..I need to gain weight but i've only took it for 2 months and i've gained some weight..will i gain more the more i take it?

i take 400 mg of seroquel AND 300 mg of wellbutrin. I went from 160 to 200 lbs. But after I started taking the wellbutrin i lost all the weight i had gained.

My son was taking seroquel an lexopro in the day, I am hearing terrible things about seroquel, that it actually makes your brain lose its natural chemicals, an really screws things up. I am trying to find a natural substance for him, I found a natural alternative called dmae for the lexopro an it is all natural an it worked, he has lost weight immediately, but now I need to find a natural substitute for seroquel, an God bless us all!! in this sad quest for our loved ones.please email me? frances.gama@yahoo.com

I have been on 1200mg of Seroquel daily for the last 4 months. I have gained about 15kilos and even after exercise and watching what I eat I still gain.
:( I think it helps my bipolar but is no good for my weight, I dont know which is more important to look after first. Mind or body. |
