Quetiapine, sold under the brand name Seroquel among others, is an atypical antipsychotic medication used for the treatment of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depressive disorder.[1][7] Despite being widely used as a sleep aid due its sedating effect, the benefits of such use do not appear to generally outweigh the side effects.[9] It is taken by mouth.[1]

Common side effects include sleepiness, constipation, weight gain, and dry mouth.[1] Other side effects include low blood pressure with standing, seizures, a prolonged erection, high blood sugar, tardive dyskinesia, and neuroleptic malignant syndrome.[1] In older people with dementia, its use increases the risk of death.[1] Use in the third trimester of pregnancy may result in a movement disorder in the baby for some time after birth.[1] Quetiapine is believed to work by blocking a number of receptors including serotonin and dopamine.[1]

Quetiapine was developed in 1985 and approved for medical use in the United States in 1997.[1][10] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[11] It is available as a generic medication.[12] In the United States, the wholesale cost is about US$12 per month as of 2017.[13] In the United Kingdom, a month's supply costs the NHS about £60 as of 2017.[12] In 2017, it was the 76th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than ten million prescriptions.[14][15]
