Valerie,
It is safe if you are being treated by a competant psychiatrist. You might research you medications on the internet, so you know more about them. If you find anything you are concerned about, then you can confront the psychiatrist with what you know. You also can seek out another psychiatrist. Fill out and sign a release for your records, the current psychiatrist has, at the new psychiatrist's office before your appt. so that he will have them when you see him.

I do believe so...however the seroquel and xanax especially together can really cause drowsiness/sleepiness. They are all different classes of drugs and as long as your''re tolerating them and being followed by psych...I dont see the problem. Good luck with everything.
