What Causes Depression And Lack Of Focus While On Quetiapine?

MY DR. DECIDED THAT I SHOULD TRY QUETIAPINE-100 MG ABOUT THREE WEEKS AGO. SYMPTOMS ARE PRETTY BAD: DEPRESSION, SEVERE CONFUSION OR JUST INABILITY TO THINK--LIKE I M REALLY LOSING MY MIND. LIKE THE MIND AND THINKING ABILITY IS LOST. I D LIKE TO STOP TAKING THIS DRUG, BUT HAVE JUST GOT TO FIND RELIEF FROM DEPRESSION.

Hi,

The symptoms you have explained are most likely due to severe depression rather than Quietiapine. However, if symptoms persist even after a month of treatment a repeat psychiatrist consultation for alternative like Serotonin. receptor inhibitors is recommended.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Thank you.
