Is it safe to increase my nightly dose of Mirnite directly from 3.75 mg to 15 mg on day 21, or should I raise it more gradually by taking 7.5 mg for a few days first?
For Mirnite (mirtazapine), it is generally much safer and more comfortable for your body to increase the dose gradually. Jumping directly from 3.75 mg to 15 mg can increase the likelihood of side effects like drowsiness or dry mouth. Taking an intermediate step of 7.5 mg for a few days allows your system to gently adjust. Please consult your prescribing doctor before making any changes to ensure this step-up plan is the safest and most effective choice for you.
