Yeah I assumed that's what you were referring to, have never heard of a drug called sequirol! Correct me assumed wrongly!
I don't know...do you mean seroquel? That's an antipsychotic that helps with bipolar disorder.
Hi Tammy, seroquel (quetiapine) is an atypical antipsychotic and is often prescribed for bipolar disorder to address psychotic symptoms and for it's mood stabilising properties mainly antimanic, although it also has some anti-depressant effects.
It is also prescribed for other things such as schizophrenia, schizoaffective, GAD or severe insomnia (because of the sedation, and in smaller doses).
It can be sedating at first, but usually this lessens as you get use to it. I have taken seroquel for about a year and am now on 500mg a day. Have you been prescribed it?
