Anyone take Mirtazapine?

Post by Guest » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:44 am

My doctor prescribed this med (Mirtazapine) for me yesterday because I still was not sleeping. I took it last night and sleept a little better but feel groggy this morning.

Does anyone know anything about this drug?

Thanks in advance to all those that reply...

Mirtazapine is also called Remeron. It's supposed to be good for both sleep and depression, and had (at least for me) some very SERIOUS side effects. I'm told that these are uncommon for most people, but if you want my take on it, see my post under this topic:

I'm pretty sure I just said that, only difference is that mine included the command to highlight the word Remeron whereever it occurred in the text.

Liam, who swears he hears and echo in here.
