Specializes in Psychiatry

Seroquel (quetiapine): I am not sure why the seroquel (quetiapine) was prescribed for you, but perhaps the 50mg dose was too high. It can cause tiredness and drowsiness. You could talk with your doctor about a lower dose (25mg is available) if this is still needed.

Dr Fowler and another doctor agreed
