Hey Hopper, welcome. That's a hell of a reduction already, 900 to 100 on Seroquel is serious work. Tapering three meds takes patience, so it's smart you're taking them one at a time. Check out the check-ins under My Taper as you go, you'll see the pattern clearly after a few weeks. Also please share your experience people's posts, your experience with that kind of reduction is worth more than you think.

Hi @Hopper, welcome! Nice to have you here. Congrats for getting down so far in the Seroquel. Slow and steady wins the race. Yes, as Based Psychiatrist said, taper just one drug at a time. Have a look around the site; there's lots of helpful information. Catina 💜

Venlafaxine (tapering) - Current dose 16.64 mg
Trazodone - 50 mg
Synthroid - 25 mcg
