Hi, I think I accidentally took a double dose of my nightly 600mg of Seroquel XR. So I think I might've taken 1200mg. I really could not remember if I took it or not so I took it, but ever since I've been feeling sleepier than the medication usually makes me. I'm also anxious about maybe taking a double dose so that's not helping. Is 1200mg of Seroquel XR safe enough for me to stay home, get sleep, and not do it again?
Accidentally took double does Seroquel XR - dangerous?

A little late for this, but its over the max dose. When something happens like this you can always call poison control and ask them what to do. 1-800-222-1222. Get a weekly pill box then you'll know if you took it.
I think I used to be on 900 or 1200, sorry can't remember. But I'm sure you'll be fine. That being said, if it really concerns you and is causing you anxiety I would check with your pdoc.

So what was the end result here?
I take XR300mg nightly. Tonight I couldn't remember if I took it... do I took one to ensure sleep. 600mg total im sure I'll be fine.
Curious if you ended up figuring out how many you took and how your night/next day went.
I just filled my weekly pill container. So easy. So worth while.
