just wondered if anyone has a fuzzy head and giddy spells while taking mirtazapine .
i have been taking 15 mg for a few years which seemed to keep my symtoms at bay,recently felt more depressed so the doc suggested a 30 mg dose this is my fourth week and I have a fuzzy head ,headaches,nausea,and giddy spells (
Sue, I am on 15 mg of mirt. I was originally prescribed by my consultant 30 mg and I realised that I couldn't function the next day if I was on the full dosage. Now, I take 15 mg primarily because I told my consultant that 30 mg wouldn't do. You say that he "suggested", so you might try reduing the dosage - telling him if you wish.
I was on quetiapine as well until recenty. When I came off it I realised that the effect of that was like being on an anaesthetic.
hi suepaul, i had all the side effects so tapered off them now :-) i use to get awfull headaches and went dizzy often i was on 15mg then 30mg thats when i felt worse, hope this helps. julie

Hello I'm off mirtazapine now. Phew, I tapered down from 30mg to 20mg in 4 days. Then took 15mg for 2 days and felt awful. So the doctor gave me sertline. I didn't take mirtazapine again. yayyy! It has been great. Ask your doctor to prescribe sertline. You will have no mirtazapine side effects then, because you won't have to take it anymore. Well that has been my experience and I feel much better :-)
