mirtazipine

Been on mirt for 5 months -4 months on 30mg.I get 2 good wks and 2 bad weeks so decided to try 15 as when i was on 15 i felt great.So went to 15 only 4 days ago and feel rotten - at what point do you reckon i shld go back up to 30 if i'm still this way? (1 week ? )Previously had no side effects at all on 15 or 30 and mirt worked immediately for me.thanks

I am doing something similar - after 4 month being on 30mg now I am going to 15mg. It is my second day. Hmmm, I immediately got anxiety levels higher yersterday, I am more sleepy, but I think it is too early to judge. 

Hi Plainden & Kirke

From what I have learnt, the nasty effects and awful sensations kick in when changing either up or down from 15 to 30 or 30 to 15 - simply too big a jump.  

When withdrawing they say to change 10% every 2 to 3 weeks which is a much kinder or sympathetic way to treat yourself.  I know this might sound far fetched but have a look at other discussions on here.

Tooing and frowing messes everything up ... not sure what you should do now, speak to your GP perhaps?

Hope you get this sorted sooner rather than later, and hope this helps a little.

Kind regards

it was after seeing doc that we decided to drop and see.Up till now I have had no problems at all  with mirt
