Just Started Mirtazapine For Sleep

Updated

I just started 30mg Mirtazapine for sleep; weened off Lunesta 2mg, to 1mg, to stopping. First night of 30mg Mitazapine wiped me out the next day. Tried again second night and did not get out of bed second day. Felt like I had the flu. Took 1mg Lunesta 3rd night and slept like a baby. Felt strongly ok the 3rd day. Should I cut this down to 10 or 15 mg Mirtazapine and keep trying with this medication? Or stop since I had such a bad experience first two nights?
