A member asked:
Can seroquel (quetiapine) be very sedating?
4 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
Yes: It can be very sedating although the dose is a contributing factor to the relative degree that it is sedating and if given at bedtime the negative impact of its sedating effects can be minimized and concentrated more in the evening.
