Guest guest Posted February 18, 2006 Report Posted February 18, 2006 Hi I am using Seroquel I have a lot of samples, or Trazodone for sleep . I would say that Seroquel works faster and really knocks you out. If a long deep sleep is what you Seroquel 100 mg will do just that it has helped me along with taking 2 mg of Dilaudid and 1 mg of Ativan on really rough nights especially after my surgery ten days ago. When I need to sleep and the regular meds are working I find that Tazodone works though a bit slower and leaves me feeling a bit drowsy in the AM. Seroquel plain makes it near impossible for me to fully wake up till about 9 am I am used to getting up at 5:30 or 6 am. One note it you take Seroquel routinely you will gain weight fast I was using it last year and I gained 20 lbs. In a month in part because the drug seems to make me feel hungry and thirsty all the time and partly because of how the drug effects the metabolism of triglysorides (SP?) not to mention I was not as active. I just used Trazodone after that and I have Seroquel PRN. Geez I feel like a walking pharmacy. Hope this helps Rick wrote: My doctor started me on Seroquel cause the headaches have become way too excruciating. Quote
