Zyban & alcohol

My psychiatrist put me on Zyban (3 days now) after I weaned off Zoloft to help me quit smoking. I am an alcoholic and started drinking again yesterday. The Zyban leaflet says I may experience have seizure so I stopped the Zyban today. I normally use Antabuse to control my cravings but stopped. How many days should I wait before restarting the Zyban. Also have insomnia which my psychiatrist gave me Seroquel helped me sleep however suffering constipation. After viewing what others have said here I have decided to stop taking it as well after 3 days of starting. Any suggestions?
