Effectiveness

How Remeron Soltab Affects PatientsMirtazapine is used to treat moderate to severe depression and associated symptoms, such as disturbed sleep, lack of appetite, and anhedonia. It is important to note that taking mirtazapine may increase the risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviors, particularly in younger people. It should not be given to children. This drug can boost appetite and reduce nausea in cancer patients. It may also improve eating habits and help with weight gain in people with anorexia nervosa. It causes drowsiness, so it can be used to treat insomnia.
How Remeron Soltab works in the bodyMirtazapine works by increasing levels of both noradrenaline and serotonin in the brain. This helps to improve symptoms of depression. Mirtazapine also blocks serotonin 5-HT2 and 5-HT3 receptors, which can make you feel more relaxed. It also blocks alpha 1 adrenergic receptors, which can cause low blood pressure and drowsiness. Finally, it may help to reduce pain by blocking opioid receptors.

Remeron Soltab Toxicity & Overdose RiskThe lethal dose of mirtazapine in male mice is 830mg/kg. Overdosing can be treated with activated charcoal and general supportive care. If a person has overdosed on mirtazapine with other drugs, they should contact a poison control center. Taking mirtazapine at higher than normal doses may increase the risk of liver or thyroid tumors in mice, but it is unclear how this would affect humans. Mirtazapine may also affect fertility and result in dead fetuses in rats. Pregnant women should only take mirtazapine if the benefits outweigh the potential risks,

Remeron Soltab Reviews: What are patients saying about Remeron Soltab?

5Patient Review
5/8/2010
Remeron Soltab for Depression
I've been using this medication for 10 months to help with my depression. It's helped somewhat, but I really don't like the weight gain that came along with it (over 10 pounds). Additionally, the drowsy feelings that used to help me sleep are gone now. So, I'll be looking for a different medication.

Remeron Soltab for Posttraumatic Stress Syndrome
In the 40 years that I've been depressed, this has by far been the best medication I've ever taken. Not only does it help with my depression, but it also gives me an appetite and helps me sleep.

Remeron Soltab for Major Depressive Disorder
I've found that this medication is most effective when taken for at least 4-6 weeks. It's helped me sleep really well, which is great because other medications (SSRIs) can have negative effects on sleep quality.

I've been on 37.5 mg for six months now, and it has definitely helped me sleep better and feel less depressed. I haven't noticed any negative changes in my weight or sex drive, so all in all I'm very pleased with this medication.

Remeron Soltab for Depression
At first, this medication was effective in curbing my suicidal thoughts. However, they eventually returned--likely because the drug caused me to gain 40 pounds. I ate healthily and worked out regularly but saw no change in my weight. As a result, I'm changing to a different medication.

Remeron Soltab for Depression
I've been taking this for years and it helps me sleep, though I'm also on other antidepressants so I can't say how much this one contributes. The weight gain has been frustrating, to say the least; however, I would rather deal with that than chronic insomnia.

The RESPOND trial explores the link between early life adversity and later life depressive symptoms. The investigators have designed a new psychological therapy tailored to address the symptoms that can be caused by difficult experiences in early life. These symptoms include low mood, emotional dysregulation, and distressing thoughts and beliefs related to difficult or traumatic experiences. The investigators would like to see if this new therapy helps people feel better. The investigators are also studying the biological changes that can occur as a result of early life adversity, and how this therapy may influence those changes. To do this, The investigators ask questions about participants' physical and mental health and take blood samples.

Aprepitant for Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting

18+
All Sexes
Montreal, Canada
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) are a frequent and debilitating complications after surgery, affecting up to 80% of patients at high risk in the absence of prophylaxis. Despite the rigorous application of the recommendations from the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) at CHUM, a recent local study reveals a prevalence of 25% PONV at home after outpatient surgery. However, the therapeutic options at home remain limited. This study aims to evaluate if the addition of 40 mg aprepitant to a multimodal strategy for preventing PONV improves clinical outcomes in high-risk patients undergoing outpatient surgery.

Stepped Care Treatment for Anxiety

7 - 17
All Sexes
Houston, TX
Childhood anxiety disorders (CAD) are common and impairing. Family based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is efficacious in treating CAD. Yet, many children do not receive care due to barriers such as limited provider availably, high treatment costs, and constrained family resources (e.g., time). To combat these barriers, other treatment methods have been developed. The stepped care treatment models maximize resources by providing low-intensity, low-cost interventions as a first time treatment, while stepping up care for those needing more intensive treatment. Specifically, a stepped care model for CAD that begins with a parent-focus intervention has great promise to deliver efficacious and cost-effective treatment without having to engage the child. While stepped care approaches show promise in treating CAD with comparable efficacy to standard CBT, there remains a large research-to-practice gap. The stepped care model for CAD that begins with a parent-focused intervention has yet been explored, and very little is known about intervention mediators that explain mechanisms of change. This research is being done to improve the reach and quality of services using a stepped care model, offering an affordable and practical solution to the widespread gap in youth mental health care.

All Sexes
Jacksonville, FL
This clinical trial tests the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of a virtual reality intervention to improve psychological symptom burden for cancer patients undergoing treatment. Virtual reality (VR) is a technology that allows users to experience and interact with three-dimensional, computer-generated environments that simulate the real world or imagined settings. The VR intervention consists of a preloaded with immersive environments designed to engage the senses through simulated sights and sounds. This may include a walk through of a serene forest, exploring vibrant coral reefs, swimming with dolphins, or standing at the base of a majestic waterfall. These environments are created to provide a relaxing and engaging experience. Completing the VR intervention may be a safe and effective way to improve quality of life, reduce anxiety, enhance focus, and promote healthy living for cancer patients undergoing treatment.

Akashic Records Sessions for Mental Health

18+
All Sexes
Palm City, FL
The goal of this clinical study is to learn the impact of two Akashic Records sessions on mental health symptoms in adults. We want to see how sessions are linked to stress, anxiety, and depression, and to resilience (ability to bounce back) and feelings of connectedness (to self, community, and humanity). Main questions this study will answer are: After two sessions, what is the impact on stress, anxiety, and depression? After two sessions, what is the impact on resilience and connectedness? How do participants describe their experience of the sessions? After two sessions, what are participants' views of their problems (insight), emotional experiences (impact) and observable behaviors in their daily life? What participants will do: Complete online surveys about their mood at four points: before the first session, before the second session, after the second session, and again 2 months later. Surveys include: DASS-21 (Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale) CD-RISC-10 (Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale) WATTS (Connectedness Scale) A short demographic form and satisfaction survey Attend two individual Akashic Records sessions (50-90 minutes each) over private video platform with a licensed clinical social worker (principal investigator) The first 50 participants will also join a one-hour interview with open ended questions with a licensed clinical social worker (co-investigator) about one week after the second session to share their experience in their own words. Who can take part: Adults ages 18 and older who can read and consent in English and who have experienced stress, anxiety, or low mood in the past year. How the research will happen: Sessions are held by secure video call. Participants will also complete private online surveys before, during, and after the sessions. Some participants may be invited to share their experiences in a one-on-one interview. All information is kept private and names are removed before analysis. Risks and benefits: Talking about personal topics may bring up strong emotions. Licensed clinicians conduct sessions, offer support, and provide referrals if needed. Possible benefits include new insights, greater peace or meaning, and improved coping; benefits are not guaranteed. Why this matters: Many people seek spiritual or transpersonal support for emotional concerns. This pilot study will provide early evidence on whether Akashic Records sessions may be a helpful, low-risk option and will guide future research.
