How common is nausea? What are your experiences? I'm trying to figure out whether the Mirtazapine is the cause or if it's something else.

It's mostly in the morning, and I wake with a dry mouth. I also get very nasty dizziness after any short bursts of strenuous activity - just lifting a heavy box from one place to another is enough to make me need to sit down for a while. This shouldn't be happening as I'm only in my 30s and I've always been pretty active.

    Hi anthony:  Are you on any other medications?  I ask because dry mouth (altho it is a side effect of Mirt) is a side effect of may meds.  Also, sleeping with your mouth open causes dry mouth.  Re: the dizziness could be due to blood pressure and/or meds.

    I've taken Mirt for over 20 years at doses of 30 -15 mgs. and have not experienced nausea or dizziness because of it that I know but as we all know, our bodies are different.  Your symptoms can certainly be from Mirt. How many mgs. are your taking -- makes a difference.
