I hope this: Is not a serious question. Those are massive doses of Lexapro (escitalopram) and Seroquel. If you are contemplating taking that please don''t and go right away to be evaluated.

Potentially?: Not likely as a direct result of meds, but anything is possible. This is a larger and serious ingestion which may make you feel terrible. It warrants evaluation by trained medical personnel in the local Emergency Room. Serotonin syndrome, manifested by agitation, and prolongation of the QT interval with development of disordered heart rhythms is the major concern.
