Quetiapine (Seroquel (quetiapine): I understand your concern. Quetiapine(Seroquel) is for treatment of Schizophrenia and Bipolar disorder, Fluoxetine (Prozac) is for Depression and Anxiety. Both can cause drowsiness Quetiapine may cause cravings of sugars, sweets candies, and fast food These and other foods will not affect potency. See a Psychiatrist for Diagnosis, Medication benefits and side effects, dose , and Therapy.
