In reply to Remeron dosage increase side effects?, posted by Jen on April 16, 2000, at 13:38:53
I've been on Remeron for two years. It was prescribed in part because I had bad insomnia. For this reason, I take it at night. I cannot imagine taking it in the daytime as it makes me quite drowsy approx. 30 min. after taking it.
I was taking 45mg, but that dose was reduced to 30mg last June when Wellbutrin SR 200mg/day was added. At 45mg, the Remeron made me drowsy AND unsettlingly woosie/dizzy. Weight gain was worse at 45, but then the Wellbutrin decreased appetite, too.
No constipation problems that I noticed at any level. I've always had to be careful about taking it too late as it caused a fog in the morning. Wellbutrin helps this, tho.
