• Description: Quetiapine hemifumarate is an antipsychotic drug that blocks receptors for dopamine, serotonin, and adrenergic neurotransmitters. It is used to treat schizophrenia and other disorders such as bipolar disorder. Quetiapine has been shown to be effective in clinical trials. The fumarate salt of quetiapine is the form of the drug that is used in these trials. Serum prolactin levels were found to be significantly lower in patients who received the fumarate salt than those who received a placebo. Quetiapine hemifumarate may potentiate the effects of other drugs by inducing their metabolism via CYP3A4 or CYP2D6 enzymes, which are also responsible for its own metabolism. This drug can interact with other drugs such as risperidone, olanzapine, and clozapine due to its atypical nature. Quetiapine hemifumarate has side effects
