In reply to Remeron?, posted by Joslynn on January 13, 2005, at 15:34:11
thanks, josslyn. my dr suggested remeron also because of increased appetite at a low dose, but before, we didn't want the drowsiness of the low dose. i'm sort of afraid of remeron for some reason. maybe i haven't heard very good things about it? the other suggestions were trying depakote again or going back on low-dose zyprexa, which at 2.5mg knocked me out not just for the night but for the next day and made me hungry enough to gain 3 pounds a week. i rejected remeron, depakote, and zyprexa yesterday because i sort of prefer this agitated energy over the deadness of before.
do you or anyone have experience with tricyclics? i've heard they are really effective, much like remeron in side effects but maybe more potent for mood? was remeron a good AD for you or just a good sleep and anxiety med?
thanks!
