Hi.. Quetiapine might be added as an augmentation agent in your case as your primary diagnosis is OCD.. need further history regarding your condition like how long you have been taking the medications etc , as it takes some time to adjust to the medications. I advise you to consult your treating psychiatrist and discuss the problem so that they can adjust medications.

It seems quitipin 25 mg was prescribed for sleep disturbance to you. If it makes you more drowsy, make it half. Still the drowsiness continues, consult your doctor directly for medicine change.
