Mirtazipine

Hi wendt1970

Yes, itchy or prickly skin is a side effect of the drug. I went up to 45mg and found with the higher dose I had less side effects like itchy body. So many side effects with this drug. I dont know your situation but I would say stay with it for a while and the itchy skin should go or ease up. Good luck…

try to avoid histamine rich foods as they contain antihistamines x
