Mirtazapine 15 Mgs Painrelief

been taking mirtazapine 15 for lower back pain (degenerative condition)for 3wks
yesterday was my first day for more than 1 year without painkillers - remedine forte - they did not take pain away!!
had tried physio, reiki, etc etc
had tried amytripaline -did not work-
only downside are the weird dreams but a small price to pay for painrelief.
I was not offered this med by my gp but having read about it I asked for it

The weird dreams are too be expected, since Mirtazapine is a NaSSA, which means it does have an effect on brain chemicals. However, the good news is they will most likely taper off in frequency and severity after a few more weeks, once your body is more used to the medication.

I'm glad that it's working for you, though. That's great!!!

Wow, it soundsl ike you really tried everything else you could first. Did none of it help?

MIRTAZAPINE won't take any pain away, in fact, it causes it My ARTHRITIS went through the roof on mirtazapine

That's odd that It relieved your pain when much stronger medications didn't. Mirtazapine is actually known to cause back pain, it can also bring out arthritis as someone else stated. Obviously I don't know anything about you but I'd be willing to bet it worked because the pain you were having was manifesting itself in your sub conscious. That's the only rational explanation that I can think of to why an anti depressant relieved your pain.
