> Hi, I hear that Remeron is associated with increased appetite and weight gain due to its antihistaminergic effects.

> My question, is the weight gain a result of the increased appetite? Or is it similar to SSRI-induced type weight gain where diet doesn't seem to matter?
> I guess, what I want to know is, anyone who gained weight on Remeron even when there were NO diet/exercise changes?

>I'm on it (45mgs.) and it increases my appetite. I've gained about 10 lbs. in 4 mos. I have to really fight not eating at night when it seems the worst.
