Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My doctor prescribed Seroquel for me to help me sleep. I was very depressed at the time and then had ECT treatment. After 12 treatments the depression lifted, but now I am very drowsy for most of the day and have to force myself to do anything. I am also on Prozac. Do either of these medications have a hangover effect?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Yes, the drugs may cause side effects like drowsiness and as you have completed the depression course of treatment I suggest you to ask for reduction in the dosage of the treatment to your physician.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Indhu Priyadharshini
