Just a quick thought

Does anyone on here drink alcohol while taking mirt?

I am not a big drinker and haven't touched a drop in the 6 weeks I have been taking mirt but I just wondered?

    Yes I regularly have one or two units and it doesn't seem to do any harm.

    Been on mirtazapine 2 weeks now I'm not a regular drinker but did have a couple of beers over the weekend no bad effects so you should be fine in moderation

    I had a few glasses of wine and a whiskey early evening which might explain the grogginess today. No one ever mentioned cutting back when they put me on it a cpl months back.
