Is there a generic for Seroquel. My husband is taking it, along with other medication for bipolar?
I’m no expert, but I have been on Seroquel for several years now and have never been prescribed a generic form. In England our healthcare is free so they are always looking for ways to cut costs, so I think I would have been given the generic if there was one. Tell your husband that I use Seroquel for bipolar too and have found it to be and excellent medication. It would be such a shame if he had to stop taking it. I sometimes forget how lucky I am to live here where I don’t have to worry about paying for medication. I hope you find an answer to your problem.
