About a month ago, my fiance went off of Celexa, which he was on for over a year, and started Remeron. Besides depression, he was diagnosed with an unusual neuro-muscular disease, from which he has lost a lot of weight . They switched his celexa to remeron, not just to help with depression, but to help him gain weight. His neurologist said it lowers your metabolism, and increases appetite. He has already gained around 7 pounds. Which is a good thing for him. He seems to be craving mostly carbs though. Anyway just thought I would let you know what his neuro said about metabolism and remeron.
