Hi, I have been on Mirt 15mg now for nearly 4 weeks, at around the 3 week mark I began developing Flu-like symptoms including chills, body aches, fatigue, upset stomach & a stuffy nose. I was wondering if it's related to the medication or could it just be a separate virus I've picked up elsewhere? Thanks

I'm sorry. I didnt have all those symptoms but did get stuffy nose and did have some chills in the beginning. I have read that this could be a rare side effect what you are experiencing and need to report to your doctor immediately. something to do with white blood cells and immune system. I would report it to your doctor.

Thanks for your reply, I was going to wait another week to see if my symptoms subsided before seeing my doctor as didn't want to be taken off Mirt yet as it is helping me greatly so far before these symptoms came up.

I... actually think i might have this right now. Since i woke up i've been sneezing like if i had a cold/flu, then now i feel pain on my muscles / my body and burning eyes, stuffy nose and overall, the symptoms of a cold. Does this goes away in the next day or does it last for weeks, my health anxiety/ocd won't like it if it last too long 😥ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜¢
