Whoever made these mint-strawberry fast dissolving domperidone tablets, you have my heart. No nausea + I love mint sweets.

Ironically seroquel is a second generation antipsychotic. But seriously psychs give this out like candy and will not consider side effects (thankfully my psych never put me on this). The problem is, those 47 receptors you mentioned are kind of "irrelevant" due to low affinity and efficacy. And that's the issue. To exert therapeutic effects other than sedation, you'll need a high dose of this thing which obviously comes with more unsavory side effects.

Second gen antipsychotics are more prone for metabolic side effects rather than first gen antipsychotics which tend to cause movement disorders (haldol and dystonia go together like pb&j). It's really something you want to consider if you have a risk of diabetes and/or want to avoid weight gain. I won't get into the dementia thing since the relation between anticholinergics and dementia aren't fully clear cut, but they can still negatively affect cognition regardless of the dementia aspect.

Not to mention that it's a potent antihistamine; histamine may have a role in cognition. Also this is why seroquel is used for sedation, it blocks histamine receptors responsible for wakefulness. That's why it makes you drowsy and may worsen chronic fatigue.

If it works for you without any major side effects, good. But it's risks aren't usually communicated well and meds aren't for everyone. This is simply for educational purposes.

OP I hope you don't mind me explaining stuff further.

reminder that seroquel is neurotoxic. as in, toxic to your nervous system. i understand some people are willing to deal with that for the medicinal benefit but i need every person on this to know. you are taking a neurotoxic substance.

you are taking a substance that acts on 47? receptors in your brain (most medications act on one to several but my god not 47). it is an anticholinergic (class of medications that have been linked to dementia), an antihistamine, and it blocks serontonin. it is basically a chemical lobotomy and in fact, thats how some doctors describe antipsychotics when they were developed - as a chemical alternative to a lobotomy.

it also carries risk of metabolic syndrome, movement disorders, increases stroke risk, (rarely) can increase your QtC interval (heart thing) leading to a condition that causes sudden death. if you have sleep apnea or POTS it can make that worse - same with diabetes and insulin resistance. i could go on. the side effects from this are many and serious.

i dont have energy for sources now so please factcheck me and do your own research but by the love of god.. i just want mentally ill people to know the risks of their medication so they can make an informed choice. especially since many of us are on this for years, indefinitely, effectively for the rest of our lives.

please, if you're on any antipsychotic (or any medication), do research and do what's best for you. ask for alternatives if you must. you deserve and need a good quality of life and it is entirely understandable and normal for the risks and harms of these medications to outweigh the benefits.

if you continue to take these please monitor your health and implement preventative measures. be safe. you are loved.

I think I do. I'm too brainfried to be comitted to taking supplements anyway

huh. so as a logical consequence of being in bed all the time & having to block off every source of natural light in my home i have a pretty major vitamin d deficiency (10ng/ml rip) and my doc has decided the solution is to experimentally give me several giant 50,000iu doses to fix it. feel like im going to be at least fifty percent vit d after this. going to be a big ball of vit d which other people can absorb their daily vit d from
