Mirtazapine and night shifts
Posted , 3 users are following.
Anyone doing night shifts and on mirtazapine? Do you take it in the morning? Sadly it only helps a bit with sleeping and never feel drowsy on it, so wondering whether to take it normally and at night.

Hi. I do about two (separate) night shifts per month. I'm currently tapering down from 30mg. One of the reasons I'm wanting to come off Mirt is cos of night shifts. I'm also taking Venlafaxine. Mirt does (at the moment) knock me out for a few hours so yes I take it in the morning after my night shift. But then of course I take another dose in the evening of that day as I generally only do one night at a time. I've only had this job a few months and so far it's not seeming to muck up my system too much with this swapping dose times. Personally I don't think I could work after taking a dose. It would def make me feel very odd and would potentially make mistakes. But obv I can't speak for you...
