Mirtazapine to Agomelatine
Posted , 3 users are following.
I have been on mirtazapine for over ten years which has been working to a degree in helping with panic disorder. Over the last 12 months panic has got back out of control. Finally doctor has agreed to change to Agomelatine
I am reducing mirtazine 30mg 5 days, 15mg 5 days then stop. Start Agomaelatine straight away.
I am up to about end of 15 mg and decided to half to 7.5mg which ive done for 2 days.
I seem to be having severe panic and nausea, gut and back pains- which isnt uncommon as these are the symptoms i usually get but feel it is worsening.
Is this likely to be mirtazapine withdrawal and is there anything i can do to help get rid of these symptoms.
I do have a prescription to Alepam 15mb but have been avoiding using it due to addictive nature but it looks like I might not have a lot of choice.

I didn't stop as fast as that and I had major problems. I had extreme nausea and through the roof anxiety felt I couldn't get a breath it was awful. Hopefully you will be ok but it will defo be withdrawels your having. I had insomnia didn't sleep for 3 weeks and collapsed I ended up on diazapam too get me through it. I'm doing good now on venlafaxine.
