Is Seroquel Advisable For An Elderly Person?

Seroquel 1/2 tab was ordered for an 88 year old man with dementia and hallucinations. He is on narendra and just started taking Arecept. He is I good health and has not taken any other meds until one month ago. Do you think seroquel is appropriate in a low dose? Thank you
