Quintiapine

[Phili]

So, I e been taking quintiapine for a while now. I’ve been taking 25 milligrams a day. Well yesterday the psychiatrist said you can take up to 800 milligrams and I’ve upped my dosage to 37mg. Now this dopes me up quite a lot, it sends me to sleep and slows down my thinking and generally makes me feel wonderful lol but does anyone know anyone or themselves who has taken 800 milligrams, this is pure fascination, because considering what 37mg does to me, I can’t imagine being on 800. I know it’s got the nickname of the zombie pill but I can’t imagine a person ever even waking up after that much

I was on it for about a week on the low dose and it didn’t make me feel right but it affects different people in a different way. I came off it and went on a different antipsychotic.

I’m on a higher dose and have been getting some vision issues, I don’t know if it’s the meds r eye strain though

I have been on 250mg of it and take it in the evening because it does make me sleepy. Has been so good for me though, moodwise and staying stable. The only problem is now I can't sleep without it which sucks!

800 sounds like a huge dose to me

I’m on 50mg. Have you been getting any flashes or ripples in your eyes at all?
