Hi Eabxj28,

That question can only be answered by you and your GP. Our opinions though well-meaning are no substitute for professional medical advice. So do go back and have another chat with him/her. Also, have a chat with your pharmacist who can give you specialist advice regarding medications.

Best wishes,

Did mirtazapine give you the noises in your head ? If it did I wouldn't go back on mirtazapine . It is a very strong drug you can take melotonin for sleeping I think NHS prescribes it now

Hi when I came off it the noises got loader so that’s why I’m going back on it seem to have low seratonin levels with all the symptoms and cannot sleep which makes it worse

But did the noises start when you went on mirtazapine?

Not originally I came off Pregabalin so they put me back on to Wien off with pregablin and mirtazaphine Once I was off the pregablin still fine so carried on with mirt for 4 months then came off that’s when it started

Try taking magnesium supplement. See if that helps instead of prescription meds

I tried them with noises in head you need something stronger first night had mirt 15 mg and termazapem to sleep worked last night try without Temazepam tonight to see mirt takes a while to get in system
