you or someone in your family has or has had a heart problem, such as heart rhythm disorders, weak heart muscle, or\u00a0inflammation\u00a0of the heart, or if you are taking any medicines that may

older and suffer from dementia (a loss of brain function).\u00a0If this is true for you, do not take Quetiapine Stada, as the group of medicines to which Quetiapine Stada belongs may increase the risk of\u00a0stroke, or in some cases the risk of death, in elderly people with dementia.<\/li><li>if you are older and suffer from Parkinson&#8217;s disease\/parkinsonism<\/li><li>if you or someone in your family has had a blood clot, as similar medicines have been linked to blood clots<\/li><li>if you have or have had a condition where you stop breathing for short periods during your normal night&#8217;s sleep (called &#8220;sleep apnea&#8221;) and take medicines that reduce the normal activity of the brain (&#8220;sedative&#8221;)<\/li><li>if you have or have had a condition where you can not empty the bladder completely (\u00a0urinary retention\u00a0), have an enlarged\u00a0prostate, a blockage in the intestines, or increased pressure inside the eye.\u00a0These conditions are sometimes caused by drugs (called &#8220;anticholinergics&#8221;) that affect the way nerve cells work to treat certain conditions.<\/li><li>if you have or have had problems with alcohol or drug abuse.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Talk to your doctor immediately if you experience any of the following after taking Quetiapine Stada:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>a combination of fever, severe muscle stiffness, sweating, or decreased consciousness (a condition called malignant neuroleptic syndrome).\u00a0You may need immediate medical attention<\/li><li>uncontrollable movements, especially in the face or tongue<\/li><li>dizziness, or troublesome drowsiness.\u00a0In older patients, this could increase the risk of accidental injuries (by falling)<\/li><li>seizures<\/li><li>prolonged and painful\u00a0erection\u00a0(priapism)<\/li><li>rapid irregular heartbeat even at rest, palpitations, breathing problems, chest pain, or unexplained

the stomach or constipation that does not respond to treatment, as this can lead to a more severe blockage of the intestine.<\/li><li><strong>Suicidal thoughts and worsening of your depression<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You who are depressed can sometimes have thoughts of wanting to hurt yourself or commit suicide.&nbsp;These symptoms may worsen when you start treatment, as it takes time for a drug of this type to take effect, usually about 2 weeks, sometimes longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thoughts of this type can also increase if you suddenly stop taking your medicine.&nbsp;These thoughts may be more common if you are young.&nbsp;Studies have shown that young adults (younger than 25 years) with depression have an increased risk of suicidal thoughts and behavior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Contact a doctor as soon as possible or go to the nearest hospital if you have thoughts of injuring yourself or committing suicide.&nbsp;It can be helpful to tell a relative
