Hi, I've been taking mirtazapine 3.5mg (NOXIBEL )for three years, it made me sleep great and wake up feeling rested and joyful. 3 weeks ago it stopped working, I'm barely sleeping, feeling anxious, sad and in a bad mood.
My doctor told me to go up to 7,5mg then 15mg and still not getting the effect. I don't want to increase it more since in high doses it does not work for insomnia.
Will it ever start working again? What should i do? Is there any chance this could be fix by changing the brand i usually buy? If I let my body rest for a few weeks will it start working again? Which meds are a good replacement for mirt? Please help!!
Thanks for your time 😃

trazadone helped me sleep but didn't help anxiety.

hi, a antihistamines are good as mirtrazapine has antihistamines in it. 15 mg and 7.5 mg will make u sleep.I've been on both doses and they both work. melatonin is also good for sleep and magnesium citrate a hour before next. at the moment I'm taking valaren root which is herbal and tgatcalso helps. hope this helps.

I stopped taking mirt for three days, now started again at 15mg. I'm not sure if its working since it takes me 2 or 3 hours to fall asleep. I'll keep posting my report since i didnt find any.
If someone's going through the same you should talk to your doctor about tachyphylaxis, some of them have no idea this actually happens.
