Can going off seroquel (quetiapine) cause flushes and sweats? i have had my hormones checked and it isn't menopause.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Haven't heard of it: but doesn't mean it can't happen to someone. There is a discontinuation syndrome for SSRI and SNRI antidepressants that includes electric shock feelings, anxiety, insomnia and GI symptoms, and I have seen a few patients experience similar symptoms after stopping Seroquel (quetiapine) and similar drugs. Also headache. But never had anyone with flushes and sweats, but all things are possible. If no relief,see MD
