Restart Seroquel (quetiapine): I believe it was irresponsible of the jail to release him without giving him seroquel (quetiapine) to take. Suddenly stopping seroquel (quetiapine) can cause withdrawal symptoms. I advise having see a doctor as soon as possible to restart seroquel (quetiapine) and try to determine if it is appropriate to continue it; if not it is wiser to taper the dose gradually than stop all at once.
