In reply to Remeron dosage + poop-out, posted by bissie66 on February 9, 2007, at 10:40:58
remeron is notorious for poop-out. You can ramp up the dose above 60--some go up to 90--but thats not really guaranteed to help. You might want to try a different AD or a different augmentation strategy. Have you tried Provigil or any other stimulants? Or benzos? Some people find 1-3mgs/day Klonopin helps a lot. You could try switching it up w/ the mood-stabilizer...upping lithium and/or lamictal, lowering lithium/raising lamictal, that sort of thing. In Bipolar depression, some people respond when the mood stabilizer(s) dose is increased; other people end up getting flattened-out on effective dosages, and a dosage reduction and/or switch to another medication is a better idea.
