Hi

Is anybody on Tumeric and Mirtazapine?

I read Curcumin is also an anti depressive drug but am taking it in Tea form.

For inflammation, pain etc

Anybody have an idea if there might be any interaction?

    Hi charles:  Turmeric may help to reduce inflammation; however, this is copied from google search -- "The antidepressant activity of curcumin was initially suggested by various animal models of depression. But no evidence had been found on the clinical effectiveness of curcumin against depression." 

    I've taken Mirt for over 20 years and have cooked using tumeric without any nasty side effects.  It had no effect on my depression or anxiety disorder. No interactions at all.
