Seroquel (quetiapine): Seroquel can take some time to get used to. It is very sedating and if you combine it with ambien (zolpidem) I am not surprised that you are getting dizzy. Talk to your doctor about dose adjustments and maybe hold off the ambien (zolpidem).

Check with doc: Your sleep problems warrant further investigation as to their source. Seroquel (quetiapine) is a antipsychotic & even though 50 mg is a low dose it isn't the best for a sleep aid.
