There is whole site dedicated to this drug:

https://www.seroquel.com/cons_bip/se...compliance.asp


It is not a sleeping pill, it is intended for bipolar mania, they do however often have the side effect of causing drowsiness.

My information is not guaranteed correct. I do not get them right all the time, but I do enjoy the hunt~

I myself am taking seroquel as a sleep aid. You will not want to take the whole pill if it is 200mg. I started at 25 mg, and am now at 100 6 months later. it is a strong pill, but i will advise you it does have the tendency to bring up disturbing dreams.
