Request: Add - Mood Tracker - Medication

[Rescue363]

Hello all,

I would like to request the addition of Seroquel (quetiapine) which is an anti-psychotic to the mood tracker. Seroquel is very commonly prescribed for the treatment of both manic and depressive episodes of bipolar disorder.

Thank you,
--Phil

Hi Emily,

Thank you for your reply.

Seroquel (quetiapine) is an anti-psychotic medication that originally was approved for use on Schizophrenia but has shown to work for both Bipolar-Manic episode and Bipolar-Depressive episodes. It is quickly becoming a very common prescribed medication for those with Bipolar.

With this medication now becoming a common and approved use I was recommending that it be added on it's own. Also, it is often that people are prescribed multiple anti-psychotics and it helps to track which one was taken.

Thanks,
--Phil

Hi there -

Thanks for the suggestion. Seroquel is an anti-psychotic medication, so feel free to use the anti-psychotic meds value on the tracker to track your use of Seroquel.

Thanks,
Emily
