Hi
My doctor has just prescribed me Mirtazapine - 15mg per day - for my depression.
I have immediately noticed how sedating it is!
What I was wondering is, is it safe to drink alcohol with Mirtazapine? It says in the instructions to avoid alcohol, but there again it says that with all the anti-depressants I have been on and I have still drunk beer/spirits without any problems.
Has anyone else drunk alcoholic drinks while taking Mirtazapine?
With Christmas coming up it's the party season so I want to try and enjoy it as much as possible! Also - as many sufferers would agree on here - I want to try and live my life as normal as possible so my depression is beating me!
Could anyone advise?
Thanks!
