Quetiapine Fumarate API

Mechanism of Action

"The mechanism of action of SEROQUEL is unknown. However, it has been proposed that the efficacy of SEROQUEL in schizophrenia and its mood stabilizing properties in bipolar depression and mania are mediated through a combination of dopamine type 2 (D2) and serotonin type 2 (5HT2) antagonism. Antagonism at receptors other than dopamine and 5HT2 with similar receptor affinities may explain some of the other effects of SEROQUEL. SEROQUEL’s antagonism of histamine H1 receptors may explain the somnolence observed with this drug. SEROQUEL’s antagonism of adrenergic α1 receptors may explain the orthostatic hypotension observed with this drug."

Indication

SEROQUEL is an atypical antipsychotic indicated for the treatment of:

• Schizophrenia
• Bipolar I disorder manic episodes
• Bipolar disorder, depressive episodes
