Hi, Dotty! Congrats on the detox! Way to go!

No, Mirtazapine is actually a tetracyclic antidepressant, it's commonly used to treat depression, insomnia and anxiety.

Learn more Mirtazapine details here.

Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, drowsiness and weight changes.

Is there anything else I can help with?

No. Mirtazapine is not an opiate. I have been prescribed mirtazapine for the past 8yrs after I detoxed myself from H. It did eventually help me to get regular sleep. I have to take regular drug panels. Hope I have answered your question for you. Take care. x
