Right so i was on mirtazapine for around a year for anxiety & depression, they helped the depression but my anxiety got worse, anyway, after putting on nearly 3 stone out of nowhere i learned one of mirtazapines most common side affects is weight gain. Along with feeling like it wasnt helping anymore i went to the doctors and was prescribed a Beta blocker called Propranolol for anxiety. They have helped my anxiety MASSIVELY.. i was taking them for a week without any symptoms or aide affects until the 2nd week, when i got up on a morning and was just randomely being sick. after that, its happened 2 other days and today ive been ill keep getting hot sweats then running to the toilet to be sick. its completely random times & when i havent even ate anything. Question is.. am i withdrawing from mirtazapine thats making me sick or is it the new tablets? anyone had a similar experience? ive been on quite a few different meds over the last few years & never had symptoms of being sick.
My story the same as yours Judy. Withdrawing from from mirt and taking 40 mg of propranolol a day.i also keep having days where I feel really sick. I don’t know what is doing what like you.
My guess is the mirtazapine.
What dose were you on and did you taper at all ?
Are you getting any other symptoms ?
It started 1 week after stopping mirt ?
hi are you off mirtazapine now? as the withdrawels were brutal for me and i was very sick coming off it
i have taken propranolol and wasnt sick
Did you taper or go cold turkey ? From what dose ?
Sorry for jumping in I came off mitrazapine and got very ill. I’m on venlafaxine now n doing ok. However I’m still very anxious and was considering asking doctor for propanolol x
hi, sorry ive just checked this! over 2 month later & im still being sick. i went back to the doctors and the doctor said it will be the mirtazapine causing the sickness & withdrawls! seems like it’ll never end
hi, ive been off the mirtazapine over 2 month now and still being sick, not as much but still a few times a week. doctor said im withdrawing from mirtazapine x
