You should ask your doctor. Regular Seroquel can be cut but Seroquel XR should never be cut or crushed.

I was told by an old psychiatrist that if you cut the xr it becomes normal release. Don't know how true that is though

Yes, that is true. I used to do that.

The XR has a special coating on the outside that slows down the body's digestion of the med, hence the "slow release"

That said, NEVER cut the XR in half unless instructed by your doctor. And actually, don't even cut the normal Seroquel in half without your doctor's knowledge
