In reply to Quetiapine + Weight gain., posted by Escapee on July 19, 2016, at 10:44:26
Both amitriptyline and quetiapine causes weight gain though..
Have you tried abilify or risperidone?
What are your disorders?
Risperidone is very good if you do want to keep a stable antipsychotic effect but not gain any weight, at least for me.
And abilify i dropped weight on, but keep that low.
If you suffer from paranoia, then i would change to paliperidone (INVEGA), it was verư effective for me at least.´
I had to stop quetiapine cause i got hypoglycemia, so i would monitor your blood sugar if you have put on that much weight.
There is a way out from this weight gain, but i need to know more about you before i can give you tips.
Kind regards / J
