Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. No Quetiapine will not worsen her symptom, there might be partial response or no response. In which you might need to change drug after adequate dosage and trial. What she is thinking is a part of psychosis and it will improve with medication. Remember medication are not magic pills and it usually takes time to show response. If she is unmanageable at home admission can be a possibility. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
