Seroquel Use

Please note: While Weitz & Luxenberg is providing information about Seroquel and a number of physical and mental health-related side effects that may have been linked to the use of Seroquel, the firm is only considering cases in which a child or adolescent was prescribed Seroquel and developed diabetes.

Seroquel (quetiapine fumarate) is an atypical antipsychotic that has many uses that helps treat:

  • Bipolar Disorder
  • Schizophrenia

    It is also being used to treat these disorders, but "off-label":

  • Insomnia and sleep disorders
  • Anxiety

    Pediatric Use
    The safety and effectiveness of Seroquel in pediatric patients have not been established.

    Geriatric Use
    Of the approximately 3400 patients in clinical studies with Seroquel,  7% (232) were 65 years of age or over. In general, there was no indication of any different tolerability of Seroquel in the elderly compared to younger adults.
