A member asked:
Taking seroquel (quetiapine) xr for 4 years and have not been able to sleep under 12 hours without being out of it all day. is there a reason and what can i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very sedating: Seroquel (quetiapine) is a very sedating medication. You could talk to your doctor about lowering the dose or changing to another medication. Another possibility is that you have a sleep disorder that needs to be addressed as well.
