In reply to Need Advice!! How to stop taking Remeron, posted by BRC on June 21, 2007, at 10:35:09

> Here is my question. I have been on Remeron for almost four years now. At first I gained just a little weight. But the Remeron gave me the best sleep in the world. That is what I mainly used it for.
>
> But a few months ago my neurologist started me on Lyrica for neuropothy caused by a benign (thank God) tumor in my spine. With the Lyrica combined with the Remeron my weight has exploded. Even though I am very active. The weight has piled on.
>
> I want to stop the Remeron b/c my sleep has improved. BUT CAN I STOP COLD TURKEY!!!!.
>
> I also take Cymbalta, Luvox, and Klonopin. I thought that with these meds in my system that just stopping the Remeron would be ok.

> BUT I NEED SOMEONE'S ADVICE.

> Hope to here your response's.

> BRCI stopped Remeron cold turkey and started the wash-out so I could restart Parnate. I only had 1 day of mild discomfor. However, I was only taking 15mg of Remeron at that point.
