Re:Seroquel XR Walgreen's screwed up

[Guest guest]

If your doc won't take it seriously, I would find another one, but

also know that you can not stop antipsychotic medications abruptly. You

have to taper them down, even when Tardive Dyskinesia is present. This

is what I have seen, anyhow. If you read up on it, you will find that

people stop eating, get rapid heart-rates, and I can't remember the

other symptoms they get when they are stopped abruptly. Sorry, but

psych meds in general are difficult to work with, which is why people

have to see the psychiatrist monthly forever while on them. If your son

does have permanent Tardive Dyskinesia, maybe there are docs who have

learned how to reverse it. There are so many things one can find on

this Internet.

O M G Walgreen's screwed up and misread the doc's prescription. He was

prescribed 50 mg and Walgreen's filled it for 150 mg. I screwed up and

didn't catch the mistake until a week and a half later. Holy hell has

ensued since then.

Called everyone and their dog last night.....psych wants to put him back

on the original 50 mg after two days of nothing....on the first day of

school at a new school in a new AU program. Please tell me that the

Tartive Dyskenia symptoms that we've seen aren't going to be permanent.

Who do I even see to see if they are?

I can't believe this.
