Hi, I am sorry to hear that the Mirtazipine 30mg is not working out for you. Sometimes more is not better 😌

If you were OK on 15mg then you might go back to it but cut back gradually by going to 22.5mg for a week.

While you are waiting for your doctor's appointment, it's worth checking in with your pharmacist.

Make an appointment for a "meds review". Pharmacists have the knowledge of every prescription 💊 and over the counter medication and could possibly recommend what to try next.

Pharmacists are often an underutilised resource of good information and you don't pay by the minute.
