Mirtazapine side effects

My husband was hospitalized at Fl Hospital April 11 – 16, 2008. He had severe stomach pain to the point he became suicidal. We asked for a psychiatrist in the hospital. The doctor prescribed Mirtazapine along with Lexipro. After 6 days of being on this medicine and 2 days after he was released from the hospital he committed suicide by shooting himself with a 357 Magnum in the head. His 18 year old son found him in the bathroom almost dead. He never exhibited signs of suicide or depression in the past 26 years we were married. This medication can give you serious adverse reactions. Please do not take it! I will do everything I can to get it off the market! Two weeks before my husband was hospitalized he was racing his motorcycle at Jennings raceway with his son. This medication will alter your mind and impair your judgment! My husband passed away on April 19, 2008

I was taking Mirtazapine for about 18 months and despite it's reputation for not causing sexual side effects I experienced sexual anhedonia the entire time I was on it. Because It had done such a great job pulling me out of depression I was willing to deal with this issue till it finally started showing some signs of pooping out. I've been on a trial of Lexapro for about four weeks now and the sexual anhedonia has for the most part cleared up. I'm having others issues with the Lexapro so we will be pulling the plug on it early next week and moving onto something else..

I have a hard time getting up and walking after a nights rest or sitting for a while. I also have severe headaches and blurry vision. Sometimes I cannot see as it seems I have something blocking my vision. The headaches are behind my eyes and at the base of skull and the top of my neck. Also shoulder pain and low back pain. These pains go away if I take a nap.

iv been taking for3-4 years now,it was a major help to me but now i feel very dopey sometimes with dizzieness, i do feel this is a side affect of the drug,i have tried cutting it down but when i do i experiance terrible,terrible headache,and no pain killer gets rid of it.i'v never been on the full dose as it knocked me out and felt sick.i only got on to half a tablet daily,i take a quater in the morning and i dont have to remind myself to take the next quater,by 1 or 2 oclock i start to get the headache. also when i try to leave out the afternoon quater i have been known to have sevear stomache cramps by evening.i feel i need to get of this!!!!!!
