> Not sure what dose you are taking, but I take 30 mg. of remeron. I gained 10 pounds from it and that was it. I've been on it 8 months. I have heard that lower doses can actually cause more weight gain than higher doses, and lower doses are more sedating. I'm not happy about the 10 pounds but it could have been worse so I'm not going to fret about it.
A friend added remeron, and it helped her enough that it *made the difference* and she didn't mind the weight. About a year or so after she stabilized, she slowly was able to lose
most of that weight (with some effort :-/). She's mom to a young child, so felt she had bigger fish to fry than her modest weight gain.Don't know about dose JMS....
