In reply to Seroquel and Depakote Combination, posted by PM80 on March 16, 2005, at 16:15:45
I just got put on Depakote about 2 weeks ago ( 500mg's) for anxiety and my doctor today just prescribed me 100 mg's of Seroquel.
I'm not "manic" but also have anxiety/panic attacks and depression. So I guess your answer would be "yes" others who are not manic are on it.
I quit taking the Depakote last week though ( it was giving me horrible heartburn!) and am now on Lamictal.
I haven't started the Seroquel just yet- the doctor left it up to me on whether or not to try this out.. so I figure I'll give the Lamictal 2 weeks, if I still feel this way, I'll go with the Seroquel as well.
I also take Klonopin (low dose) twice a day and Restoril for sleep.
I mostly have anxiety issues that tend to lead me to depression- so we sound similar.
Are you male or female?
One thing about the Depakote and the Seroquel is that can really put on the pounds, so watch for that.
