Hi have just started on mirtazapine 15mg at night. However for a long long time I have suffered constipation for a week whilst really anxious my magnesium suppliment did the trick usually I take 20mg ducolux and 4 extra strong senna cot every two days. Does anyone know about any interactions. I think I saw on the mirtazapine interaction about seizures with bisocodyal (ducolux ) due to lower sodium levels but my body is used to taking this level of laxatives. Haven't had a poo for four days now but don't want a seizure eithergosh what a state to be in any advice welcome thanks x

I've taken mirtazapine for some time and never noticed any connection with digestion. Many people find it makes them more hungry, however.
