I take seroquel twice a day. Should I take them exactly every 12 hours

I mean I suppose taking them every twelve hours probably keeps the serum levels more consistent.

But if I took them a little earlier in the evening wouldn’t I actually feel the beneficial effects more. By that I mean if I take them right before bed am I sleeping through the benefits?

I took Seroquel a couple of years back. I think I only took a dose once per day.
I really don’t think it has to be THAT exact.

So long as you take the doses at the exact same time everyday, you can probably do what feels best.

I’ve been on Geodon and Seroquel for a long time. I just take them roughly every twelve hours. You’re supposed to take Geodon with food. Sometimes I have to eat when I don’t want to because I’m supposed to take my Geodon with food.

Psychotic nights are the worse, you wake up not knowing if it was all real or not. It’s good that you have all the 24 hours of the day covered

twice a day to me means in the morning about 9/10am and about 6/7pm

I’m on the IR. Don’t think it lasts 24 hours hence I take it twice a day

When I take medicine twice a day I take it in the morning and then again at night.

I take seroquel rbx 3 times a day ‘when needed’. Sometimes this can be close together, sometimes not at all. Xr of a night time and it varies between 6pm - 10pm. I would imagine twice a day recommendation would be one to last the day and one to last night, but check with your doc if you’re not sure.

I’m on the IR and I take it all at night and luckily that works fine.

I think some pdocs say twice a day and some don’t?

I take 800mg of seraquel at night and my pdoc told me to take it three hours before bed so that i can be calm and relaxed enough to sleep
