High eye pressure and internal shaking
Posted , 4 users are following.
Hi,
I've been on 7.5mg mirtazapine for over two months now after a break of two months and it's been ok apart from getting flashes of light in my eyes at least couple of times a day (which I had checked and the dr said I now have a higher pressure in the eyes which may cause it) and in the last week I have developed something that I remember one of my doctors described as being conected to the mains (something you may expect as a side effect from mirtazapine). I didn't have any other symptoms which could indicate anxiety but now I started to worry as I'm about to travel with my little son. I also feel like there is some pressure in my head as my ears hurt sometimes and the tinnitus (potentialy caused by mirtazapine withdrawal that went wrong) is louder. Please can you let me know if you've experienced something like that?
Many thanks

I too havent had the best experience with Mirtazapine, pressure in the head, tinnitus, lightheadedness. almost a head 'lag' feeling.
I am a dual medication regime with Lexapro & Mirtazapine but I clearly know the Mirtazapine has caused these side effects.
From all accounts we must withdraw very slowly and in Australia we can use a compund chemist to make up small doses to withdraw slowly.
I agree with you about your symptoms and I feel for you.
Move slowly with whatever decision you make.
