There's not too many of us maxiRems, as far as I can tell. Did you know that in Europe they regularly start them out at 30 mg and the typical dose is 90mg? I'm very glad I had the intuitive hit to increase my dosage from 45 to 75mg. It is an entirely different drug than the dopey half baked response I was getting at lower dosages. I think Remeron is wonderful and wish the US psych community would get a clue as to it's effective dosages.

The Florida trip sounds like a great idea, but can't we do a little better in the cuisine department than canned tuna and bread? Hey, I'm a great cook! As long as you catch me in a hypomanic swing I'll handle the munchies. Speaking of which, did you find your weight problems/appetite change with a higher dose? - Barbara

> I can't believe that I am finding people that are taking high doses of Remeron. I am taking 75 mg. at night for neuropathic pain. I had a hard time convincing a few doctors that I needed this much. the recommended dosage is 45 mg. and that is the highest dosage that the company ever tested. the last time that I was in the hospital everyone questioned the amount even the pharmacist. I think we should all save a few hundred dollars and meet eachother on a beach in Florida with a sleeping bag, a few cans of tuna and a loaf of bread. That would surely help my depression and I wouldn't have to spend all my time reading and writing. Oh by the way TOM G--I have been sick for years and my house is a wreck. You can come over anytime you're having an uncontrollable cleaning spell.
