can anyone advise me how to reduce my dosage from 45mg down ## Hello, Tommie! How are you? You should follow you doctor's instructions. Generally, the modern preferred method is to have someone gradually reduce their dosage, while starting to skip days, such as going down to 40mgs on Monday, then skipping Tuesday, then taking the 40mgs again on Wednesday. Do that for a week, then reduce to 35mgs the next week and so on. The FDA lists the possibly withdrawal effects as including nausea, dizziness, fever, chills, rebound pain, depression and mood swings. Is there anything else I can help with?

The FDA classifies Mirtazapine as an antidepressant and it has been known to cause some back pain, as a side effect, along with nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and weakness. But there's also a chance that could be due to a pinched nerve, if it's happening when you change positions. Have you had this checked out by your doctor, yet?

I have been on mirtazapine at 15mg for two weeks, I feel like a walking zombie and my moods are vile! I am agitated and hot tapered with my husband and children making me a nightmare to live with. Today the doctor has prescribed me 30mg as I have always been on such a high dose of Citalopram before we tapered off, that she thinks my side effects may be because I need more antidepressant in the system but agreed it might be because they don't suit me but we won't know until we've tried them for 5-6weeks. My question is will I always be tired and zombie like?...and also will I always be hot tempered and agitated? Or will these symptoms wear off as at the moment I just feel like stopping the damn things! Would really appreciate the opinions of those who have experienced this dr...

Hi all, hope someone might have an answer!! I have this feeling of weights being attached to my shoulders and chest. Had an ekg and all fine with that. I do suffer from anxiety and depression and take mirtazapine and clonazepam. Small dose. Does anyone else experience this? It's driving me crazy, Doc just looks at me like Im from outer space................please help. Hard to do everyday chores, hard to type this actually...... ## What type of doctor have you been seeing for it? It might be time to switch to a neurologist to get to the root of the problem.
