Is it safe to take Nasen, despite depression and taking Ketrel?

Good morning, my father has trouble sleeping and has been prescribed Nasen (zolpidem). Can he take it safely even though he suffers from depression and has been taking Ketrel (quetiapine) for a long time? After reading the leaflet attached to the drug, he has doubts.

There are some interactions between the drugs included in the question. The combined use of these drugs may be therapeutically beneficial, the patient should be closely monitored during the use of the combination. Although sedatives such as zolpidem are often prescribed with psychotropic drugs (e.g. quetiapine), patients should be informed of the possibility of summing up the depressive effects of these drugs on the central nervous system (e.g. reduced alertness) and the possibility of impaired psychomotor coordination (e.g. reduced muscular coordination) during the use of the combination. During parallel use of drugs, the patient should be monitored for adverse reactions and lower doses of zolpidem should be considered. If you are concerned about the effect of the drug or the accuracy of its selection, it is best to talk to your doctor about it. It is difficult to assess this without knowing your father's medical records.
