Update of Mirt withdrawal
Posted , 7 users are following.
Went to see Psych today. I have been reducing my Mirt from 30mg to 15mg over the last couple of months (my decision) because of this awful weight gain (3stone + in around a year) I have been advised to reduced straight down to 7.5mg for two weeks, introducing 50mg Trazodone at night. He will review dosage of Trazodone in two weeks with a view to possibly increasing the dose.
I really could not continue with this horrendous weigh gain and am pinning my hopes this will be the solution.
Does anyone have any thought on this please.

I would like to say not to rush off Mirt' it has a nasty withdrawl sting inc. anx & insomnia that hits between day 4 and 2 weeks ... do a slow taper, no more than 10% every 2 - 3 weeks, being kind to yourself will be your best friend in the long term.
If you decide to go quicker, its up to you, your body/mind, and it gets too difficult, you can always take a little step back, to the last dose and wait until youu are settled. Take car, look after yourself x
