Remeron is known as a Tetracyclic antidepressant and classified as a Noradrenergic and Specific Serotonergic Antidepressant (NaSSA), meaning Remeron affects Norepinephrine and Serotonin.
Remeron increases the release of both Serotonin and to a lesser degree Norepinephrine (Noradrenaline). Norepinephrine increases blood pressure, affects parts of the brain where attention and action is controlled. Along with Epinephrine, Norepinephrine creates the fight-or-flight response that increases heart rate and triggers the release of glucose while increasing blood flow to the skeletal muscle. Serotonin influences the cardiovascular, renal, immune and gastrointestinal systems, and is essential to regulate body temperature, heart rate, blood pressure and the sympathetic nervous system. Remeron is also a potent antihistamine that contributes to its sedative qualities but is also known to cause weight gain and sugar cravings.
A massive 2014 study of 22,610 people analyzed the affect on weight from the use of antidepressants. Remeron (Mirtazapine) was found to cause the greatest amount of weight gain, representing a 7% increase per year..
There have been many reports of withdrawal symptoms upon the discontinuation of Remeron or with a too rapid titration. The FDA states, "Patients currently taking Remeron should NOT discontinue treatment abruptly, due to risk of discontinuation symptoms. At the time that a medical decision is made to discontinue treatment with Remeron, a gradual reduction in the dose, rather than an abrupt cessation, is recommended."
Many patients find that even with a gradual reduction Remeron withdrawal symptoms are too challenging and interfere with daily life. Our nonprofit was founded to help the public safely taper Remeron and we use slow taper schedules combined with calming, all-natural nutraceuticals to ease Remeron Withdrawal.
Our non-profit company has assisted people in 73 countries to regain their freedom. We can help you.
