Seroquel Be Used For Anxiety?

In relation to seroquel and headaches the dosing used is very small when compared to that used for psychosis. In fact, the doses that I use for headaches and chronic migraines have only a small effect on mood. If someone is mildly depressed, this medication may have some benefit in addition to helping with the headaches.

As far as anxiety is concerned, seroquel is not the best medication for anxiety. Clinical experience and many years of research have demonstrated that there are much better medications. A couple of the SSRI's (Paxil and Lexapro) have the anxiety indication and are excellent for mild to moderated anxiety.

For panic attacks, I have found that a fast acting benzodiazapine, Klonopin works quite well. It has far less addictive properties than others in the class such as Ativan and Xanax.

Generally, it is best to talk to your medical provider first before trying to diagnose yourself or someone else. Although you might have anxiety attack symptoms, there are many things that can cause anxiety so don't try to self diagnose or treat.
