Your GP can do it

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using healthcartemagic.


Seroquel is antipsychotic which is often prescribed by psychiatrists. If it was advised earlier by a psychiatrist you can follow with your primary care physician.

PCP have complete authority to prescribe seroquel but often they are not authorized to start treatment with seroquel on first place.

I hope this answers your question.
If you have more questions feel free to write back to me.
Thanks and regards.
