My Psych JUST prescribed this as my current cocktail (zoloft, wellbutrin and clo****pam are nnot working)
I AM TERRIFIED... this drug is notrorious for weight gain, correct?

is there ANYONE OUT THERE who did NOT GAIN on this drug... ANYONE AT ALL???

I didnt gain any weight on mirtazapine, just stick with your weightloss plan and you should be fine
Iv come of a lot of my meds lately and have gained weight but that could be through other reasons.... like me pigging out

Good luck honey xx

marie, thank you so much!! it ives me hope at least!! i can tell you i have NOT experienced any "voracioous hunger" yet, since i started maybe 5 days ago....

I gained weight on it, but it was not ACTUAL weight, it was water weight. I was so swollen on it that you could not tell I had ankles! It was terrible. I could not wear shoes at all. My fingers were also severely swollen. I could not wear my wedding ring for awhile. The Dr told me that it was rare for that side effect to occur though, so hopefully that will not happen to you. Just wanted to let you know that swelling is considered a dangerous side effect of the drug and if you notice ANY swelling after taking it, please call your Dr because you will need to be taken off of it.
