i was prescribed mirtz for anxiety and sleep to take alongside fluoroxetine. I don't want to continue with mirtz. My GP did not explain to me about the problems with mirtz. I thought they would just help me sleep. Did not realise abt the side effects. I have taken 4 tablets in total, so am hoping I don't get withdrawal symptoms. I have been in flux for one month and I am sure they have kicked in now. I just don't want to take two sets of antidepressants. Anyway I am not going to takes he mirtz tonight. Let's hope I sleep ok.
Hi Deborah,
If you only took them for four nights, you should be able to stop without problems, though nothing surprises me with mirt anymore! You are wise to double think this. Try magnesium glycinate 200 mg at bedtme for sleep. Some say that inositol helps with sleep but you would need to get the bulk powder and take 8 or so grams...I'd try the magnesium first. You can take 400 mg at bedtime if you tolerate 200 mg well.
I wish you luck :-)
Thank you. I Have Been listening to relaxing music and rain, but can not flaming well sleep!! I am going to drink milk.

Hi Deborah, how do you get on? Maybe it would be worth tapering off if you are having some sleep issues
