Seroquel ADHD

Seroquel is not typically prescribed for ADHD (attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder).

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a psychiatric diagnosis that identifies characteristics such as hyperactivity, forgetfulness, mood shifts, poor impulse control, and distractibility, when judged to be chronic, as symptoms of a neurological pathology.

While Seroquel has the sedation effect commonly found in ADHD drugs such as Ritalin or Prozac, it is usually prescribed for treatment of bipolar and schizophrenia disorders.

THE NUMBERS
In 2003, 7.8% of school-aged children were reported to have an ADHD diagnosis by their parent.

Medical questions about Seroquel and ADHD should only be answered by a doctor or other health care professional.
