My seroquel recently stopped working for sleep ( on account of increased anxiety from prozac which i started two weeks before) and the doc added a 0.25mg of kolonopin to be taken at night along with seroquel 25mg, which works. A friend of mine mentioned that she's concerned about the combination of these two meds. said i should check for any possible interactions. So i was wondering if anybody else is taking the same combination. or have any advice on this matter.

I take both meds, athough at much higher doses. I take 200 mg of seroquel at night along with 2 mg of Klonopin. I haven't had any issues with interactions.

I take Seroquel and Klonopin together. Not unusual at all.

I'm also on Seroquel and Klonopin, although the doses I'm on are much higher and taken with other meds. I do sort of remember when I first started Seroquel on a lower dose though. It's a common combination. My pdoc said Klonopin can increase the drowsiness of Seroquel, and it has done that for me from time to time, where I will notice feeling more of a hangover effect in the morning. Nothing too troublesome though.

I take Seroquel in the evening, but not for that reason. The sleep achieved from it is a bonus as I used to use Ambien for sleep at night until I was able to achieve better sleep patterns, though I find that if I take Seroquel too late at night, I feel groggy the following evening.

I have used Klonopin before, but again, not for that particular reason. It was more for anxiety and not for the use of sleep. In any case, I did not use it too often because I was afraid of tolerance and dependence, something that one should watch out for when using a benzodiazepine such as Klonopin for long periods of time.
