    Restless Legs!!

    Anyone else out there develop this while taking Mirtazapine? I basically have a lot of trouble standing or sitting still and I notice I move my legs and feet so much more! I wouldn't mind it so much but my legs are starting to get really sore..just feeling so much more fidgety than usual. By the way I've increased me dose from 15 to 30 mg this past week.

    It will hopefully ease off once your body adjusts to the new dose, when did it start?

    It started about 2 or 3 weeks ago. I had just increased my dose from 7.5 mg to 15 mg. I also hope it eases up as I just increased for (hopefully) the last time. If it doesn't then I'll ask my doctor about it!

    Re: Restless Legs!!

    Yes I posted about this in my "six months on" post, it is one of the low level side effects that persisted for me. I have no idea why, but it only happens now and again and when it does, only when I go to bed and am trying to sleep. My legs just feel a bit odd, and I seem to have to keep moving them Drives me nuts The good news is it doesn't seem to happen that often now.
