Seroquel is the initial version of the drug, Seroquel XR is a sustained-release version useful because you will only need to take one dose daily as opposed to multiple doses of plain Seroquel.
Seroquel XR means extended release while Seroquel refers to the ordinary one.

Can you mix benzodiazopine with quetiapine?

My doctor used to (just 2 months ago, for several years) prescribe Seroquel (quetiapine) with xanax and ativan. So, I think the answer is "yes". I was also in a research study involving Seroquel and Depakote (valproic acid) and they allowed me to take xanax occasionally for anxiety. This is all for the diagnosis of bi-polar disorder.

What is an alternative to Seroquel for Anxiety?

This is simply not true. Many antidepressants can actually INCREASE anxiety, though your body may vary. Buspar is something worth giving a shot, as well as Benadryl. There are also the old and trusted Klonipin, Xanax, and Ativan, though those have a risk of addiction--particularly Xanax. Most antidepressants help with anxiety. Seroquel is strong stuff.
