So yeah, unfortunately it's PRN


I glad that I'm not the only one who thinks my pdoc's statement is odd.

Btw, he also isn't going to give me a med change yet. He says he wants to see what happens with Seroquel.
When I first started taking Seroquel it knocked me out at 25 mg. It seemed like a really low dose, but it actually worked. I don't take Seroquel for sleep anymore. I take 800 mg split between am and pm. I have become so used to the medicine that taking the 400 in the evening doesn't make me sleepy at all. I have heard that it is more effective for sleep at lower doses. Good luck with that.
