Is Seroquel Good for Long-Term Use?
While we do not yet know the full extent of Seroquel’s long-term effects, some of the research so far has been concerning to psychiatrists and health advocates. While the initial trials that were used to approve Seroquel for the treatment of schizophrenia demonstrated fairly consistent tolerance and efficacy, the studies into long-term use so far have had more mixed to disastrous results.

Some of the most common side effects emerging among long-term quetiapine patients include muscle issues. The side effects reported range from simple annoyances like stiff muscles to debilitating conditions like constant involuntary movement in the mouth.
Some of the most common side effects emerging among long-term quetiapine patients include muscle issues. The side effects reported range from simple annoyances like stiff muscles to debilitating conditions like constant involuntary movement in the mouth.

The muscle problems related to long-term Seroquel treatment can be divided into two categories, the first being extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS) and the other being tardive dyskinesia (TD). EPS manifests as muscles that are restless, prone to involuntary trembling, and frequently feel stiff. TD results in slow muscle response and awkward, difficult-to-control movements. The first symptoms of TD often manifest in small, involuntary movements in the muscles in the mouth, jaw, and tongue.

What Does Quetiapine Do to the Brain?
In short, we don’t know exactly how Seroquel works on the brain. We know that using Seroquel produces a sedative effect that can help resolve serious schizophrenic episodes where someone is at risk of harming themselves and others, but we don’t know if relying too heavily on Seroquel over time might be doing more harm than good to the patient’s brain and body.
