Hi Patti. I've been on Remeron for a couple of months now. I started at 15 mgs and am now taking 60. The drowsiness or grogginess in the morning was most pronounced at the low dose and has largely disappeared now. I still feel tired at times but that may be from reducing my other meds.
I never had any eye problems - other than keeping them open in the morning - I just generally felt pretty sedated. Since anxiety was one of my big problems the sedation was welcome.
So far Remeron has been great for me. What other meds is your father taking? What was his diagnosis?
Oh yeah - I have gained about 25 pounds, which I gather is a common downside to the drug.
