I have been on mirtazapine (45mg) for some time. I also take 2x100mg Pregabalin. The Pregabalin dose has just been increased due to a recent drop in my mood. If this doesn't work my GP. is suggesting dropping the mirt dose lower and possibly introducing Sertraline. Has anyone been in a similar situation? If so what was the change like?
Bumping thread up for you Jools, as I personally have no experience of these meds, but as your post has now moved down the page of 'recent posts'...thought I'd move it up again.
Thanks. I'm sure someone on here will have some experience on this.
Sertraline is likely to do more that mirtazapine and pregabalin as neither are first line anti anxiety meds, imho.Quote:

The recommended dose range is 50-200mg with most needing 100-125mg for optimum results.Quote:
