Quetiapine and headaches?
 
since my doasge got upped a week or so ago, i have had a solid headache. It hasnt stopped, sometimes gets worse sometimes slightly better but hasnt left.

Does anyone else get headaches with quetiapine?

I dont, but I strongly advise you see someone asap about it,, I dont know that it could cause headaches, and the leaflet (Im on it too) says nothing about headaches, but it does say changes in blood pressure.

If you are taking any other meds, that could be a complication of it, I suggest you ask a mod to move this to the First Aid section or PM one of them, you will get a better answer probably.

Take care, try to relax, that may help.

Sorry this is usless. xoxo

I get headaches with quetiapine, i thought it was just a side effect. Usually i don't take my morning dose, i take it all at night so that i sleep through any headache, not that i am recommending messing with your meds - i'd speak to your dr.
I also get a funny feeling in my legs, sort of restless - have you experienced that?

no not with quetiapine but i know the expereince from other meds i was on. its a horrible sensation.

I take quetiapine and have never had similar problems, I would get it checked out with your GP

Make sure you are drinking plenty of fluids too. The weather has been warmer recently and this can often cause headaches.
It might be an idea to speak to your doctor who prescribed the meds, a slower dosage change maybe better for you.

spoke to dr and psych, they said it they dont think its related to meds, but they wouldnt give me anything for them.

im taking so many painkillers its ridiculous and they dont do anything apart from ease it up for a while, its doesnt stop
