Does Seroquel cause Flushing and Hot Flashes?

In: Health, Medication and Drugs, Seroquel [Edit categories]

Answer:

I can't say that it *causes* flushing and/or hot flashes. I *can* say that the detailed prescribing information (found on www.seroquel.com by clicking on "SEROQUEL prescribing information"), on page 38 under the Cardiovascular System, notes that vasodilatation is is an infrequent side effect.

I am not a doctor or nurse, I am, however, taking Seroquel. I have a problem with flushing, even while not on medication. I don't know if it's just me imagining things, but it seems like the flushing has been exaggerated since taking the Seroquel.

I'd also like to know if anyone has noticed flushing, or an increase in flushing, while taking Seroquel.

I had really bad hot flashes and chills while taking seroquel. I had a bunch of tests ran on me, the doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong. But 5 days after stopping Seroquel, the hot flashes stopped.
