Hello, I have had tinnitus for almost five months. Two months ago, I tried Mirtazapine 3.75 mg to help me sleep. At first, I used it occasionally, about five to seven times in total. (Now I know this should not be done under any circumstances, but I was gaslighted by both doctors and other...

I started Mirtazapine a little over a week ago. On the first day, I took 15 mg, which was way too much and significantly increased my tinnitus perception. I reduced the dose to 7.5 mg for the next three days, but the same thing happened—my perception increased, and a low-end humming sound...

...to anything that might make my tinnitus worse, both while on the medication and after stopping it. Two options that have come up are Mirtazapine (Remeron) and Trazodone. I understand that everyone's response is different, and I'm not looking for medical advice—just hoping to hear about your...

...side effects. Three weeks after stopping, I developed tinnitus that is now constant, 24/7. My general practitioner then offered me Mirtazapine 15 mg to help with sleep issues. They never mentioned that it could worsen tinnitus. Now I am trying to stop taking it because my tinnitus has...

Hello, I'm considering taking Mirtazapine (7.5 mg), as I suffer from severe insomnia and depression, along with distressing tinnitus. At this point, I'm so overwhelmed by my symptoms that I would not mind taking Mirtazapine long-term if it actually helps. However, if it does not work or causes...

The pill is too small to cut, has anyone got off mirtazapine by using the liquid? A compounding pharmacy can make it and I can slowly get off this poison.

I started 7.5 mg of Mirtazapine two months ago and recently went to the eye doctor with concerns of increased floaters but mainly seeing what is hard to describe, all in my right eye. Kind of like a line somewhat horizontal and a little wavy. I usually see it in "just the right light" so I don't...

Anyone taper off Mirtazapine? I have been taking 15mg for about 10 months and trying to figure out the best approach to take on this.

...I have to lose. I was getting no sleep, had to eat a bland diet because processed food was a severe trigger as was stress. He suggested Mirtazapine which is for severe depression. It comes in 15, 30, and 40 mg. The dosage of taking less and having it work better is counter intuitive. I take...

Hi, I am trying to taper off Mirtazapine and after about 48 hours of taking my last dose I get a high pitched noise in left ear. Been on Mirtazapine for about 2 months and it is not doing much for me so doctor is helping me off. Has anyone else had this and how long did it last for? I have...

Hi all, I am coming off Mirtazapine in hopes that it alleviates some of the visual snow I developed while on it. Also long term I don't want to have it wear off for sleep and any benefits, and just make withdrawal worse or having to updose. I've been on 15 mg for 3 weeks, 7.5 mg for two...

Hi, I have had tinnitus for many years without it bothering me at all. I have a past history of being on Mirtazapine for some years, which was due to having a stressful job/lifestyle, and, I am glad to say that following a change of job/lifestyle the stress in my life has now gone and I...

Hey guys, I have a problem! I have been on Mirt for 1 year now and it really helped me! Feel great T lower but the weight gain is really a problem for me. Now the doc wants me to try Amitriptyline. I tried it for one night and it made me fell panic and i could not sleep. Thus i guess resulting...

...I am! :( :( Nights were hell, this new tinnitus was driving me insane. High pitched ringing that got worse when lying down. I started Mirtazapine 15 mg and lowered to 7.5 mg for sleeping as Opamox or Ketipinor didn't help much. Mirtazapine has faded my tinnitus away, and helped me sleep...

...a bad spike due to Effexor since December and also insomnia which is not related to tinnitus, though tinnitus probably isn't helping the sleep. I took Mirtazapine 7.5 mg last night and awoke in the morning with decent sleep but a serious spike. Does anyone have any experience and advice here?

...coping strategies for other illnesses are meditation and quiet/silent relaxation. I am pretty sure that the medicine I have been taking (Mirtazapine) has been begging to get out of my system for about a year now. I'm fairly sure that it has caused my tinnitus. Are cases of drug related...

...a tough time at work and started suffering from sleep deprivation. After looking up information on this website I started taking Remeron (Mirtazapine) for sleep. After one week of taking 15mg every night, I started noticing this electric buzz in my head. At first I didn't attribute it to...

I reluctantly took Mirtazapine for 10 days until one morning I woke up with ringing in my ears. I stopped immediately but two weeks later the ringing has not stopped. I’m praying it will stop sometime. I can’t sleep and will soon lose my job. Anyone have Mirtazapine induced tinnitus stop or...

...GPs because they're mostly in denial about it) can be very nasty and protracted. I'm in month 5 of withdrawal from Sertraline, week 5 of Mirtazapine and have just (barely) started to perceive that things might be getting a bit better, for example instead of anxiety 24/7 it's mostly just...

Has anyone been on mirtazapine and got off it? Did you have any problems? I have currently cut from 15mg to 11mg.

I recently managed to get down to a quarter of a 15mg mirtazapine tablet about once a week and my tinnitus has become even louder. I wanted to find out if my T would reduce if I came of mirtazapine but it's difficult getting to be completely off it as the T has gone up. Just wondering if anyone...

I have read some very positive things about Remeron (Mirtazapine), and a few startling posts as well. Are there any safer prescription alternatives to Remeron? Currently I am using Ativan and Ambien to fall asleep, but only get a few hours (usually wake at 2-3 am with tinnitus and anxiety). I...

Anyone taking mirtazapine and benzos for your TINNITUS.

My ears are still blasting away, I take 15mg remeron, 2mg lorazepam and 15mg restoril. Does anyone have problems with Remeron?

Just started taking remeron 15mg and the T is blasting. Could the remeron be the cause? I also take lorazepam and restoril for sleep.

Hi all, Some of you might remember earlier this year I was on Venlafaxine and most recently (about 6 weeks ago) I was switched to 15mg of Mirtazapine at night. 15mg of Mirtazapine is not enough to curb my depression, so my GP upped it to 30mg, however the sedative effect bizarrely gets less...

...slowly improving, doing mindfulness everyday / just finished CBT on NHS. My doctor wants to change my antidepressant from Citalopram to Mirtazapine. Has anyone done this and has Mirtazapine helped at all? Feel like I have plateaued on 40 mg of Citalopram, any advice would be appreciated...

...I became sick with stress and my thyroid crashed once again. The tinnitus and sound-sensitivity re-emerged. I was then recently put on Mirtazapine, which made my sensitivity to sound even worse, and with that my tinnitus became worse. They both seem to fluctuate a lot. If the Mirtazapine...

Hello everyone, I've started experience tinnitus on September 7, 2021. I'm unsure if it came from either: - Using 15mg Remeron (Mirtazapine) for 2 weeks and stopping over 6 days. I initally took Remeron for insomnia and dealing with a stressful event. - Dysfunction of C1, C2 vertebrae from a...

...I have been living in hell for 3 years, especially when it comes to sleeping. I accepted in November 2021 to take antidepressants (Mirtazapine), because I read on Tinnitus Talk that it is the safest antidepressant and that it promotes better sleep. Gradually, under the supervision of my...

I've read here that Amitriptyline or Nortriptyline and Mirtazapine - are best non-chance of making tinnitus worse alternatives to Lexapro and Zoloft for bad anxiety. I've never heard of those anti-depressants. Is that considered pretty accurate those are best non-tinnitus affecting? I'd...

Hello Dr Nagler, I have been on Mirtazapine daily for a few months. The tinnitus isn't gone but I am not that anxious anymore. Normally people have to take Mirtazapine for at least 6 to 9 months. But if my depression and anxiety comes back is it safe to take Mirtazapine or another...

...symptoms back, hence why I stayed on it. Anyway... since my spike started I developed poor sleeping/insomnia so my doctor suggested 15mg Mirtazapine which I can take at the same time as the Venlafaxine, except Venlafaxine in the morning and Mirtazapine at night. Now I've taken Mirtazapine...
