It has been some time since I took remeron, but I don't think there is any contraindication for taking it while you have tonsilitis. In other words, I don't know why you skipped a dose. Unless you know something I don't, I would take a pill right away if I was in a similar situation.

Hi Donna,
just take it easy. I've been taking Remeron for over five years. Take the remeron and have a good night sleep, you will not feel better if you skip a dose once again. If you're sitting in uk, it's bedtime now ;) Does it feel better now?

Why would you stop the Remeron if you had tonsilitis ??

Why stop Remeron if you have tonsilitis? If you have any doubts about the interaction of your AD with an antibiotic, your doctor can look it up for you or the pharmacist would know.

Donna,
I checked rxlist.com, and the only drug-drug interactions mentioned are for alcohol and diazepam. There's no indication that antibiotics would be a problem. If I were you, I'd get back on the Remeron as soon as possible... Going without it cold-turkey can be rough. I hope you feel better soon!
Jon :)

I sure wouldn't want you to skip another dose. You need to keep the blood concentration of the medication constant. You don't need your old symptoms to rear their head while you are sick. Always check with your MD before making such drastic decisions with your medication. Also, let the attending MD know you are on Remeron and you will not be in such a bind again. Take care of yourself. Hope you are feeling better soon:>
