Can I take Empagliflozin and Mirtazapine together?

Why this happens

Empagliflozin is a diuretic-like medicine that removes sugar and fluid via urine, which can lower blood volume. Mirtazapine can sometimes affect blood pressure regulation. Together, they may have an additive effect on lowering blood pressure.

It is generally safe to take these medicines together. To stay safe, stand up slowly from a sitting or lying position to avoid dizziness. Ensure you drink plenty of water to stay hydrated. If you feel very dizzy or faint, speak to your doctor or pharmacist.
