It worked great for me. It was sedating, which I needed. You can gain weight on it but I was 5'7 and 116 pounds when I went on it. However, if you don't need the weight be careful bc it seems to affect the most people that way.

Is prozac and remeron a good combo?

I gained about 50lbs during the six months I was on Remeron and can't honestly say that it was effective for me. No other side effects.

Smeegle-

Did you have any withdrawal problems when you went off of Remeron.

I have been on it 8 weeks and have been helped with anxiety and depression but it is making my hypoglycemia much worse so I'm not sure if I should continue to take it or not.

I went through really bad paxil withdrawal. So, I'm just worried if I do stick it out for a month or so on Remeron to see if the blood sugar thing calms down, if I'll be able to get off of it.
