I have been using Seroquel for the past week and have noticed that it seems to work okay.
I still wake up at least once during the night to use the bathroom. I once complained of this to my GP stating that my wife never had to get up during the night. He calmly pointed out that she didn't have a prostate gland...
My PDoc had me get a trial of 30 25mg tabs, telling me to take one to three as needed. I have been taking one, but I tried two last night and felt fairly loopy in quick order.
Frankly, of all the sleep meds I've tried this fall, I've had the best luck with Lorazepam (Ativan), but my PDoc doesn't want me to get hooked on it. Probably a good idea.
Trazodone gave me unbelievably nightmarish dreams.
I feel slightly groggy in the AM after taking Seroquel, not hung-over, just groggy. I did notice that if it's the weekend and I can sleep in just a little bit more, the groginess is not nearly as bad.
