I was on a high dose of Prothiaden for a number of years and the dreams were no longer significant, which was great after bad dreams since I was achild. Now on Mirt which has had some positive effect but worst symptoms are the return to vivid dreams and the weight gain. Why can't they produce something without the bad side effects. Was on 30mg but up to 45mg and there has been a slight difference and am hoping the dreams won't be so significant. Have thought about coming off them but then I will lose the positive effect too.
Anybody else at this point? or is it worth carrying on with it?
I too experience very vivid dreams on this medication - I am on 30mg. But it is to the point where I can't tell if it is a dream or has happened, they are so vivid and real.
I also experience dizziness - I am yet to find a good side to this drug having just been switched to it from Citalopram. I am going to ask my doctor for a different one because I dread going to sleep now.
How are you getting on with your 30mg of Mirtazapine, are you still taking it.??
I spoke to my consultant about the worrying dreams and they were nearly my reason for coming off it. However I have been on 45mg since February and the higher dose has helped. I do still remember dreams but they are less vivid and disturbing. Mirtazapine seems to be a drug where you suffer increased side effects the lower the dose. Let me know how you get on.
This system seems to be breaking down a bit.I posted something on yesterday but it did not show up as a reply. There is a message posted on 26th April for Frozen in response to your queries.
