>Mirtazapine is a great example of a potent 5-HT2a and 2c antagonist, that for me could drive off a panic attack within an hour or two of ingestion. Unfortunately, it didn't do much else, and its adrenergic and antihistamine effects were just annoying.
The antihistamine effect is the sedation?
Does the adrenergic effect emerge through the sedation?
I've always associated adrenergic with stimulation.
I did enjoy the way it made sleep deeper.
Is that related to the 5HT2 a and c antagonism, rather than the antihistamine effect?
