Hi, i used to take Serequel, which is one of the strongest meds on the market, and one of the most dangerous.
When i was using heroin and i took serequel to help me sleep, it would put me into the worst withdrawals, but i had no idea at the time, i thought it was the serequel that i must be allergic to.
Fortunantly i found out that drugs and serequel dont mix.
It will probably send you strait into withdrawals.
Although your clean now, serequel may help you sleep or it may make you much worse.
Good luck : )

Hi..Are you completely off the Methadone??
You should talk with your DR about this.
Seroquel is a short-acting atypical anti-psychotic approved for treatment of Schizophrenia, Bipolar and along with an Antidepressant to treat major depressive disorders.
I had a 12 yr Methadone habit and in 2012 I came clean off of that med plus 2 others. I was given some Seroquel for sleep..(do not know why now).  I took it for One Night ONLY and it made my w/ds so much worse and gave me the restless legs that night..I stopped it right away and never had the RLS again after. So please do not try to Self Medicate Yourself.
Talk to the DR..
We sure can give you some hints on what we used in a more natural way that helped. Just asked and you will get LOTS of input. Make sure you are taking some Epsom salt baths for the aches & pains. The Magnesium in this helps draw out poisons too..Wishing you the best!
Bless

Hi & Welcome,

I assume you mean Seroquel? If so, it is prescribed for bi-polar disorder. Have you been diagnosed with bi-polar?
