Weaning from Remeron, suggestions?

Posted by pinkeetoz on February 24, 2006, at 15:56:55

I'm new. Went into detox 2 weeks ago for clonzapam(Klonopin). Was given 15mg of Remeron and 100mg of Seroquel to be taken at night. It's been sixteen days and about 2 days ago noticed more sedation, heavy-dreamy states during the day. I'm thinking, after reading others posts on here, that it's probably the Remeron. It's been only 16 days, but I'm sure it's in my system enough to where I would need to get off of it gradually. Any suggestions welcomed and appreciated.

Soltabs, tabs, generic?

Do you have a diagnosis? Long history of anxiety or depression? Why remeron and seroquel?

I would wean off it as soon as possible. Just to let you know it most likely cause some insomnia and anxiety too. You need to talk with you doc, and try to find someone that knows the meds and just doesn't want to push more meds. If you are not depressed I don't see any reason to stay on remeron. I think there are better meds for sleep IMHO
