Has anyone gained weight with Mirtazepine, and have you lost it one stopped taking

I am so unhappy with my appearance I have gained 2 1/2 stone in 9 months , I'm only on 15mg Mirtazepine for my anxiety , just wondered if I stopped taking this would the weight drop off ?

Good question..  yes Mirtazepine has a tendancy to give you the supper time munchies & snacking..  Try replacing your food supply with low cal nibblies and food eg; salad, green vegetables, fruit (in moderation as some fruits contain high sugars)  Make time to walk or exercise..  Hope this helps

I too gained a lot of weight on mirtazapine. I'm currently coming off it as my appearance is making me miserable. It can be hard to come off of I'm currently struggling with it a bit. Have a look at the mirtazapine forum and the posts in there! Some people have reported losing the weight after coming off it. (I hope so anyway)
