Seroquel is fairly notorious for weight gain and sometimes causes metabolic disorders, such as diabetes. Taking metformin with the seroquel may help.
Geodon has more EPS, which may or may not translate into more tardive dyskinesia. Geodon also has a warning about potential cardiovascular problems, but that hasn't translated into any actual patient deaths (that we know of).
50mgs seroqel is highly sedating; I would think ramping it up, maybe with an xr+instant release combination, would reduce overall sedation. I could be wrong. Adding more adderall during the day could also help.
