I'm getting a large amount of fluid build-up in my body, particularly face, legs & feet, from taking Seroquel 150mg, and possibly from Lamictal (just starting 25mg daily).
Aside from drinking loads of water & herbal teas, & avoiding salt/sugar is their anything that can help? Health food store diuretic formulas just don't seem to attack it at all.
It feels pretty uncomfortable and looks ugly! Help, please & thx.

I take Lasix (diuretic) and it works great. No side effects. It's a prescription.

Thanks - I'll try that. I think the diuretic meds will be better than anything else.
I was wondering if you found that you developed a tolerance to it over time and had to increase your dosage to get it to keep working?
