is anybody taking quetiapine for anxiety? im on 100 mg and am seeing my psychiatrist next wednesday. this was prescribed because ive had lots of medications that havent worked. anxiety and tension has been a lifelong problem for me especially the last 13 years as ive had muscle tension in my head and around my eyes. does anyone else recognise these symptoms?

    Quetiapine Fumarate is an antipsychotic drug and is extremely potent.

    What is your experience of using this medication, do you find it helpful?

      it is helping a little bit. maybe a higher dosage is needed or more time.

      You need to see your doctor about this because it is a very powerful but nevertheless effective drug.

      Your doctor may well authorize a slightly increased dosage providing you are not encountering any side effects.
