Hello, my doctor has increased my dose from 15mg to 30 as my depression wasn’t lifted. How long does anyone think it will take to help? Thanks!

Give it a couple of weeks it never worked for me and I found the 30mg affected my sleep hope all goes well for you
They put me on it solely because they can’t trust me with anything stronger. I’m on 45mg and the only thing it does for me is make me sleep. Depression and anxiety is still their
It took 3 months on Mirtazapine 45 mg to work for me. I feel ok now so glad I stuck it out
I've been on 45mg and Escitalopram 5mg for a while now was on a lower dose but 45mg seems to work for me....They are only meds that help with my deep depression and help me my sleep at night and no plenty over thinking tried various other meds in past but they weren't happen
It can take a maximum of 3 months to experience the benefits but the vast majority get results in under a month.And most doctors adjust or adapt medication once a month maximum so world quite well.
Good luck
Initial time period five weeks, However it can depend on how long you have been on the initial dose. Generally it is not unusual for the Doctor to increase the dose after a given time, so it may take a further two weeks
