Quetiapine-induced peripheral edema: case series

Quetiapine is a commonly prescribed antipsychotic in the treatment of psychiatric disorders. Although it has a relatively moderate side-effect profile, peripheral edema might be much more common than reported in clinical trials. All other secondgeneration antipsychotics may also induce peripheral edema, which could be important for treatment compliance. Therefore, clinicians must be aware of the possibility of edema development. This case series aims to discuss the related variables and underlying pathophysiology of SGA-related edema.
