What does “Seroquel” cost (and why the price varies)?
“Seroquel” is the brand name for quetiapine. The amount you pay depends mainly on (1) whether you’re buying brand-name Seroquel or generic quetiapine, (2) the dose/strength (e.g., 25 mg, 100 mg, XR formulations), (3) whether it’s immediate-release or XR, and (4) your insurance and pharmacy pricing. Brand-name versions are typically much more expensive than generics.
Is Seroquel still available as a cheaper generic?
Yes. Quetiapine is available as a generic, which usually lowers the cost versus brand Seroquel. If you have a prescription for “Seroquel” specifically, your pharmacist may still be able to dispense generic quetiapine depending on how the prescription is written and local rules.

If you tell me your exact prescription, can you estimate the cost?
If you share:
- the strength (mg),
- immediate-release vs XR,
- your quantity (e.g., 30 tablets),
- and your country (or whether you’re in the US),
I can point you to the right formulation to check and help you narrow down what you should expect to pay.
