> Can anybody tell me of their experience on Remeron? Specificly, is it really as sedating as many say it is? What about weight gain? Thanks.
I've been on Remeron about 5 months now for moderate depression.
I started at 15mg and worked up to 45mg under my psych's direction.
I take no other psych. drugs. My experience with this has been similar
to others...at the lower dose there is considerable drousyness...after a
while and with the higher dose, the drousyness has completely disappeared
for me. Slight weight gain at first due to increased appetite, but this
has leveled off and is not a problem now. I have no other side effects
at all.While it has helped me feel "better", at times I still feel a little
"low". My psych. says no problem, try 60mg if you want for a couple of
weeks and see if it helps...if it doesn't, drop back to 45mg. I wonder
about that...Question...has anyone had experience with a dosage higher than
the 45mg per day? Any comments?kind regards to all!
