Seroquel is considered such strong stuff because it is used as roofies, or date rape drug. 25mg (the lowest dose made) will put an adult out cold, on their ass, for around 10 hours, 50-100mgs could completely knock you out for up to 20. So pretty much its considered serious business because scumbags use it as roofies in order to rape women. Its also very serious because when taken with out any of the disorders it is meant to treat (schizophrenia, manic depressive, and extreme anxiety), it has to the potential to really screw up your brain, causing mental disorders, the worst of which is serotonin disorder, which is potentially fatal. It has recently become a popular prescription to treat sleep problems. I'm prescribed it for chronic sleep disorders and have been taking it for about 3 months, and it knocks me right the hell out and I don't wake up once till tomorrow. Works excellent for sleep problems.

Is 50 mg trazadone as strong as 50 mg seroquel?

No, 50 mg of trazodone is not considered as strong as 50 mg of Seroquel (quetiapine). Trazodone is primarily an antidepressant and is often used for sleep, while Seroquel is an atypical antipsychotic that can also be used for mood stabilization and anxiety. The two medications have different mechanisms of action and effects, making direct comparisons of strength challenging. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice regarding medications.

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.
