In reply to Remeron versus Pamelor, posted by Sharon M on March 7, 2001, at 7:08:34
Remeron has less side effects at higher doses. So at 30 mg, the weight gain and daytime tiredness is not as bad as it is at 15 mg. Some docs start patients at 60 mg to minimize side effects.
> I am currently taking 50 mg of Pamelor for insomia along with 150 mg of Wellutrin for depression. I saw my doc yesterday and told him I was a little foggy in the mornings and my hands trembled some but it did help me sleep. These are the only side effects I have had with the Pamelor. He recommended that I switch to 30 mg of Remeron but after reading about all of the side effects, I am afraid to start it. Has anyone taken Pamelor for insomia?
