Hi, does anyone know how common it is to put on a lot of weight when taking Mirtazapine? I don't mind putting on a little but I've noticed that some people say they put on a lot though they didn't eat more? Does anyone know a statistic? My Dad takes Mirt, and he hasn't had any weight gain.
Also I've been suggested to come off Venlafaxine in order to start Mirt. but I'm concerned about the Venlafaxine withdrawal symptoms, and I've noticed some people on here take both, so I'm thinking of asking if I can take both until I feel more stable and ready to reduce the Venlafaxine, as I feel too vulnerable to come off medications at the moment - has anyone been through a similar scenario?
Thanks, Ros
