                                            Question : Would Seraquel help with alcohol detox?
                            
                                    Brief Answer:
hi, it is not specific for this purpose.
Detailed Answer:
Hi there, thanks for asking. This medication has not been designed to treat the alcohol withdrawal. However, it may help for people who have a mood problem like bipolar mood problem in parallel with alcohol problems. It is common in these people so it may be given for that purpose. Besides, taking supplements like magnesium and vitamin B1 helps. Also doctors usually give a medication to control the anxiety and also control insomnia. I wish you a good health.
