Does Regular Intake Of Seroquel 25 Or 50 Mg Cause Memory Loss?

Hi hi I am 79 yrs old and have been taking seroquel for a year. I have not had any side affects from it. I take either 25 or 50 mg. I am not depressed or have any of the effects for using it except for sleep. Can this pill cause memory loss. I used to take ambien but no longer take it and I had problems with the ambien but not this drug.
