depression
"My doctor prescribed Mirtazapine to me after seeing him for depression, anxiety and sleeping problems since he through it would tackle all 3 problems with one prescription. I started with 15mg, then went to 30mg cause it wasn't enough and then to 45mg because 30 stopped working. 45mg and 30mg started giving me extreme anxiety and heart palpitations. I spent 3 months on Mirtazapine and it was only good for the first month (which is reversed compared to others). Im on Cipralex (Lexapro/escitalopram) for a week now and when I stopped the mirt., last night, my palpitations went away. I now see clearly that mirt. caused my anxiety to sky rocket and my heart to race uncontrollably. My pulse was about 96-100bpm daily, even at resting heart rate."
