In reply to Is there anyone who LIKES Remeron?, posted by yesac on December 15, 2006, at 18:47:22
I loved remeron, it was all that worked after about 11 other trials. I was on it for about 7 years (currently seeing if I can make it without an AD). I did gain about 30 lbs, but was underweight to begin with and the weight gain was very gradual for me. When it got to be a nuisance I combined Remeron with Adderall, Dexedrine over the years to help curb appetite. Also reduced my caloric intake and got into a habitual exercise regime, both of which helped with weight gain AND energy. It was definitely worth the side effects for me.
Also, the side effects are usually less at higher doses. For about 3 years I was on 90mg and really noticed a difference in sedation and appetite at higher doses.
