i have been tapering off mirtazapine for a couple months now and wondering if anyone else was. i was on a dose of 7.5 for a couple months when doc told me to cut dose by 1/4 every ten days, then off. three weeks later i had to reinstate as i couldnt sleep more than 2 hours a night for three weeks i had been off. after stabilizing back on 7.5 for six weeks i started a slower taper, that was end of august. since then i have been making small cuts every week and am now on a dose of 2.2mg. i get nausea, anxiety, tinnitus, headaches, muscle pain especially hips and back and insomnia with each cut. just wondering if anyone else has tapered or is tapering off mirtazapine and how they are doing it and what they are experiencing. thanks.
Darling, almost everyone(if not everyone) in this forum is tapering off or came off of it. And yes, that and more you can experience while tapering.
Search this : Mirtazapine (Remeron): Uses, Side Effects, Interactions, Pictures, Warnings & Dosing - WebMD
and you will see all it can cause you while coming off of it (basically we all have experienced many of those symptoms listed there) Hope that helps
