Pregnancy, Medication wearing off ?

[TeaNtoast25]

I’m currently 6 months pregnant, I take quitipine 50mg witch usually sends me off to sleep no problem, lately I’ve been taking it as usual and I’m up all night, was wondering if it’s safe to get them upped by the dr, has my metabolism made them not work no more ?

I'd speak with your doctor about it because they are a heavy drug. Don't take more yourself without doctors permission. Congratulations on your pregnancy 😊

Thank you for your reply, sorry what do you mean by heavy drug? I got advised to double my dose last year after a death but was very hesitant in doing so due to the side effects of having high cholesterol, thank you ☺️

Also I will contact the dr on Monday, not sure if they will advice to come off them in my 3rd trimester, has anyone else been on quitipine whilst pregnant, what’s everyone’s experience please 🙏

Hi, sorry no advise from me but I've recently found out I'm expecting and currently on 200mg of Quetiapine. Following with interest.
