Hi Malcolm!
Today was my 7th night with Seroquel 25mg and it was like you say. I too have built up tolerance to the sedative effect, but still my mind is a bit foggy during the day. Ok 25mg isn't much, but if you say this happens to you at a dose of 100mg, this isn't very encouraging..But this remembers me of trazodone: First I could sleep VERY well on 50mg, then soon I had built up some tolerance and I needed to go up to 100, then 150.. at 150 now there's some sleep promoting effect for me that doesn't fade over time it seems.. since taking trazodone (>2.5yrs) I've never had trouble falling asleep anymore (took ~1-2 hours before). Now my problem's early awakenings and anxiety...
Have you already tried trazodone or low doses of potent antihistamine drugs like amitriptyline, doxepine?
Good luck to you!!
