Alternative to Seroquel?

Everyone responds differently to meds. My mom did very well with a combination of Ativan and Seroquel.

I hope that you are able to find a viable solution soon. The only other thing that I can think of recommending is to speak with your pharmacist. They are knowledgeable about meds and may be able to suggest certain medications to ask your dad’s doctor about.

Best wishes to you and your dad.

Seroquel was a nightmare for us! My husband, age 81, took it for only a few days, and became aggressive, violent, angry. Neurologist told me to reduce amount given. I said I was not going to give it to him at all. I asked for a small dose of Ativan. She refused. Our Primary Physician did agree to .5 mg of Ativan, which helped for agitation, but also made him lethargic and sleeping more. However, we have now begun him on gummies for agitation, which we bought at the dispensary. I had a phone consult with our Primary first. Asked if I could give my husband CBD. He said he could not give me a prescription for it, but that it would not hurt him. Went to the dispensary. Got a lot of information and advice. Started him on a recommended gummy, and it has been a lifesaver! He's smiling again. Speech is a bit better, although still very compromised. Eating better. Definitely in a happier mood. No outbursts or temper tantrums.
