My best friend and life partner had taken Seroquel since late 2005. He had adverse reactions to this drug. It was to be used as an antipsychotic for his bipolar depression, but it made him psychotic to the point of him running out into a three lane highway and not knowing what he was doing. Police had to be called to retrieve him and get him back into the apartment. This was reported to his caregiver. she did nothing. He continued to take the drug. On August 26, 2009, he drowned himself in the Ohio River because this drug caused him to be psychotic and have suidical thoughts and tendencies. His body was recovered on August 29, 2009. There is no legal action/recourse available to me since we are a gay couple. I lost my best friend, my life partner and my love due to the negligence of a medical official who would not listen to reason.

I too have been on seroquel for at least a 1 yr and a half. Well I have had alot of these same symtoms everyone has been mentioning. I have been for so many tests and scans to find out why I have been having all those symtoms. I came upon all these comments and cant believe the doctors havent put it together- its all from the seroquel. As of today im getting off it.

Seems like you all have a lawsuit. Personally i dont believe in Psychotic meds i feel its manupilitive and just wrong especially when givin to children when there mind is so young. My parents had me on ritalin when i was 12 for ADD and i made the decision to stop taking them, i didnt like how they made me feel. im glad i stopped. its made me who i am. and reading about all these side effects thank god i stopped when i did.

I cannot believe alledgedly AZ has spent 500 million dollars already defending this drug. This money could have been given to plaitiffs or pay back medicare already.No ehics at all with this company. Obviously it it a problem. Yes, I do believe they have the right to defend themselves but come on!!! the little people gets screwed again. It is not like the money we are going to get is going to make us rich and go buy a hacienda somewhere and retire. If we could we probabaly will not enjoy the little fruits anyway. Will not be able to see and will have to have a bag to collect our pee on our side.

my mother used to take seraquel and for totally different resons but my advice to you guys who dont want to take it if you are depressed taking it is prob not a good idea unless your depression is causing you sleep problems seraquel is downer i dont know what the hell is wrong with some of these doctors and the drug company is even dumber if its causing so many people problems good luck to all you guys
