Remeron / Mirtazapine doesn't exhibit any meaningful anticholinergic properties. It's a strong antihistamine.

I would at the very least try and reduce my dosage to reduce the risk that has been associated with the meds. I think Remeron, amitriptylline and Seroquel may be in that category but look your meds up to be sure.
