I am writing for my wife. Her Doctor took her off 15 MG Mirtazapine and now she gets an upset stomach and throws up. It has happened 5 times now and one time twice in one day. Also it doesn't seem to make a difference what kind of food she eats. I am wanting to know if this is a side effects of stopping the medicine? She had been off of it for a week before she started throwing up.

I was very very very depressed and my doctor prescribed me Zoloft. And it has worked beautifully. I feel ten times better. No more sadness, suicidal thoughts, lack of motivation, none of that. The only negative about Zoloft or probably any antidepressant is that when you first start taking it you go down before you go up. Also the firsr month or so you will feel pretty mellowed out. Not down but n ...

A friend of mine was prescribed this drug about 2months ago after her sucide attempt. She seems much happier nw, almost even much to say she has a different perspective of life? Side effective sleep is disrupted every nite same time, sum times she also experiences headaches.

I took this drug for 5 days and had a seizure (never had one before). I am convinced it was this drug that caused it. I stopped taking it. I have no other opinions otherwise.
