Overview Zimquine 100mg Tablet

Quetiapine 100mg tablets treat schizophrenia (a condition causing hallucinations, delusions, and impaired thinking/behavior) and mania, also managing bipolar disorder. This medication can be taken with or without food, but consistent daily timing ensures stable blood levels. Follow your doctor's prescribed dosage and duration; if a dose is missed, take it immediately upon recall. Sudden discontinuation is unsafe and may exacerbate symptoms; consult your doctor before stopping. Immediately stop treatment if Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS) occurs (fever, muscle stiffness, altered consciousness, or seizures). Common side effects include low hemoglobin, high triglycerides, low cholesterol, headache, extrapyramidal symptoms, dry mouth, and withdrawal symptoms. Postural hypotension (sudden blood pressure drop upon standing) may initially occur; rise slowly. Dizziness and drowsiness are possible; avoid driving or mentally demanding tasks until effects are known. Weight gain is a potential side effect, mitigated by diet and exercise. Increased diabetes risk necessitates regular glucose monitoring. Report any unusual mood changes, new or worsening depression, or suicidal thoughts to your doctor immediately.
