> > Steve - I'vebeen on 15,30, and 45mg. trials. Am hard pressed to note any side effect other than some mild weigh gain and increased appetite. I am told this is less a problem at higher doses. My personal eperience is one of still having a healthy appetite but leveling off on the weight gain at thew higher dosage. I experienced profound, immediate relief of anxiety which was very severe and nonresponsive to any other agent on any onging basis. I have been on remeron for 6 months and have had no return of anxiety symptoms.
> I've been on remeron for about a month and have gained over five pounds. My question is, is it possible that the weight will be lost after adjusting to the medicine. I don't want to take a higher dose, since I'm doing well on the lower one. Any experience with losing the weight?I am going to start on remeron in about a week. My dose is 15mg. I will let you know what happens!
