Hi all

I've been on mirtazipine for a few months now and they work brilliantly but I've got very breathless and my lips turn blue. Iknow it's due to the Mirtazipine but does anyone know if I stop the tablets will my breathing go back to normal? Thanks in advance

Bumbledoor, unfortunately we are unable to give you the answer you

are looking for. It is always best to ask your prescribing physician. You are

on an excellent medication but please do not stop the tablets on your own.

It could be very dangerous... Do indeed tell your doctor about the breathlessness

and blue lips. It's important xx

Thanks Agora1. I really appreciate you replying. I was just wondering. I'm going to get an x-ray tomorrow but I really think it's the meds and not the cancer. My doc is making sure though. Bless her. X

I was on Mirtazapine a couple of months ago. I didn't have that experience, I went off it because I gained weight Everyone's different. You should speak to your doctor.

Thanks Want2BHappy3 for replying. I have and she wants me to have an xray of my lungs to see if my cancer has spread but I'm pretty sure it's the meds doing it.
