Yes, tell your pdoc what's going on and see what s/he says.

I don't know what could be going wrong, except that maybe you need a higher dose in order for the Seroquel to work.

Personally, I have not found Trazodone helpful.

As suggested by others, I would discuss with your Pdoc. My daughter was on 50 mg when she was IP and about a month after, and it's effectiveness was being decreased by her other meds (Nafazadone and Tegratol), but it did help her sleep. Her regular Pdoc pulled her off of it about a month after she was discharged.

Maybe other meds that you are taking are impacting its effectiveness? If so, it's definitely something your Pdoc should review.

I would definitely reach out to your Pdoc and let him or her know what is going on if you haven't already. I hope you find some relief.
