I have never taken any sort of anti depressants, so I can't really comment but if it was me I would have done just as you have and contacted my doctor again.

I do hope your feeling better soon. :)

It would if she can. They are very powerful, and usually send me to sleep within 30 minutes of taking them. They do leave you feeling very groggy for a while after.

One thing you can't do is drink alcohol whilst taking them, you literally go off your head. I've learnt my lesson now, and stop taking them two days before I'm going out.:rolleyes:

Or seeing as its you, coffee might act as an antidote :D

I do hope you are feeling better soon.

Re: Mirtazapine tablets
 

the doctors just called and he's written me a prescription for some different anti depressants, something beginning with fl , couldnt make out what they where actually called, so i'll go pick that up sometime tomorrow, apparently the one's the other doctor gave me had some sort of sedative in them

Re: Mirtazapine tablets
 

They sounded a bit iffy to me, see how you go with the new ones!!

Re: Mirtazapine tablets

Re: Mirtazapine tablets

Re: Mirtazapine tablets
 

They are needed to relax my muscles and joints after the accident. I can take them at 10pm and still be wide awake at 1am. :(, have tried taking them earlier but still dont send me drowsy.

Re: Mirtazapine tablets

Re: Mirtazapine tablets

Are they Fluoxetine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Re: Mirtazapine tablets
 

Mirtazapine are for major depression and aren't generally used first line, 15mg is the correct starting dose usually increased to 30mg within 2-4 weeks, doesn't sound like they're right for you though Shaz. Dr has quite a few others he could choose but the two starting with flu are Fluoxetine (Prozac) and Fluvoxamine (Faverin) that are in the same class has Citalopram. PM me Shaz if you need any info.
