A member asked:

After drinking alcohol daily for about a month, i stopped and exprienced hallucnations. im taking seroquel (quetiapine) 50mg. should i?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Proper Indication: If the daily amount of alcohol consumed on a daily basis is high enough, stopping abruptly after one month could cause alcohol withdrawal symptoms including hallucinations. Seroquel (quetiapine) is indicated in the treatment of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and to augment an antidepressant in the treatment of major depression. It is frequently used off-label as a sleep aid. There are substantial risks.
