See answer: Ask your mother's doctor without delay what is the reason for Seroquel (quetiapine) and communicate your concern that her cognitive state seems worse. Ask about rationale for this med, withdrawing dose if any side effects or another strategy. Also let nursing staff know you're worried about your mom and need to speak to her doctor. Do speak up. I hope this helps you and your mom.
