Get a life. You have no clue what you're talking about. Before you're going to spout off at the mouth know WTF you're talking about. Seroquel is not a "it's an antipsychotic actually, with unlabled uses for sleep and anxiety" and I don't believe it's killed any lions lol. There are many reasons not to take methadone or Seroquel but u didn't name one. You clearly know nothing about addiction or you wouldn't be so flipped about it.

You need to keep your opinion and facts separate. YOU might have had a horrible experience but that doesn't mean EVERYONE does. I am currently on Methadone & seroquel and I function perfectly. I have been on this regiment for a couple years now and no my brain isn't fried and GUESS WHAT I have a normal job, I do normal stuff, I have not had an episode for over a year. This was also the opinion of not only a 2nd opinion doctor but 3rd as well that if you introduce your system slowly to these two VERY SUCCUSFUL drugs and watch your signs very closely then they can be very rewarding. So nlfor you to give out info as if its the ultimate never changing FACTS is very very dangerous as well as ignorant. This is one persons opinion as is mine, that's it period. I'm sorry but when I saw this all I could say was "What a FN troll"

Where do you get you're ludicrous and unbelievably exaggerated and mostly incorrect information? Are you an MD or perhaps a pharmacist? If not it is potentially wreckless for you to make the statements you have made. Methadone and Suboxone are definitely better than the alternative, being opiates. I'm on Suboxone so please don't tell me that Suboxone isn't helpful. It absolutely is. Is it addicting. Yes. But it's a situation where you are in the right place in your mind and your life when you consider cessation of it. It's not a race. What people don't know about Suboxone is that it basically restructures the chemical absorption in the brain. And while the mind is restructuring or resetting you continue the Suboxone. And then at the proper point you can start titrating down on the medication, very slowly I might add. The bottom line is we didn't become addicts in a week, we're not going to get through it in a week, if ever. And please don't leave anymore reviews unless you know what the hell you're talking about. You get people worried about something you know nothing about.

Jessi,
That's why the combination of serequel and methadone is generally contraindicated they potentate eachother and MAY cause severe emotional disturbances and over sedation. I'd definitely contact a competent prescriber to reevaluate your condition or better monitor your meds.

ask your doctor to give you something else. I was put on that and had a problem so I told the dr who changed it. It took two more meds before I was given the one that works for me lithium. I suffer with depression so for me is a combination of pills to work and now I feel great when it comes to mental issues

I'm on methadone. I take 550 mg of Seroquel. Like u said, I can't sleep without it. If I don't get it I feel like I'm withdrawing. The pain won't stop. I want t stop, people will never understand that it's a nightmare. The torment that I feel is making me desperate. I take Methadone 2.

No. I'm on 210 mg of methadone and I am on amitriptyline 75 mg and if anything it actually produces euphoria if taken together but there are no signs of withdrawal whatsoever. You're safe as can be.

You need to get off of seroquel right now, and educate yourself. Combining a tranquilizer strong enough to kill a lion, with methadone? A medication that takes 6 hours to kick it, so you cant gauge how much to dose unless you've been dosing for quite some time. If you want to die, keep taking what your taking. I'd say you have a legal case in your hands against your doctor. Your doctor should not be prescribing seroquel while knowing your on methadone. Anyways, you need a LIGHT and SAFER SLEEP MED. SEE if klonopin puts you to sleep. If so, your are VERY lucky, and you should start using that and only that, 3 mg at most for sleep. Trust me I know, I used to fall asleep for 12 hours off 1 mg, now I take klonopin to stay awake! My brain got fried after they f***ed me over with seroquel and lamotrigine! I swear to god its been a 10 year battle, and I have to have a weekly marijuana habit of $100 just to keep down withdrawal symptoms. I'm so maxed out on my benzos I can take 10mg of xanax and feel nothing. The only time I get stoned anymore? Is when I'm ON METHADONE. Basically what Im saying, is, my brain is fried after listening to therapists prescribing lyrica, ssris, mtaos, zoloft, lamotrigine, lamictal, depakote, seroquel....these are all VERY BAD FOR THE HUMAN BODY AND MIND. Seroquel ESPECIALLY is A DEATH WISH.

Hello, Peter! How are you doing?

Some caution does need to be taken, when taking these medications together, because they can increase the toxicity of each other, so that could be what's causing your problem.

Have you consulted your doctor? You may need them to make a dosage adjustment.
