I'm not sure what you're concerned about I was on 300 mg of Seroquel myself for a few years for sleep when I got clean and sober after 40 plus years of drinking and drugging. Anyway, I got off of them because of the side effects that it had on my weight and glucose levels in my blood. I was prediabetic according to my doctor's opinion and blood work. All I had to do was go onto 150 mg.'s of Doxopein for sleep doctors subscribed and taken as prescribed of course. After that, I was good to go.
