Remeron has strong antihistamine properties, but I don't think it is significantly anticholinergic.
I know a lot of anticholinergics have significant abuse potential. Some of the activity of rewardings illegal drugs like marajuanna, datura, etc are partially explained by potent anticholinergic effects.
Some authors suggest that remeron relievs depression faster than other AD's. If this is true, I would attribute this to its sleep promoting and anticortisol effects that it does share with the TCA's.
