I started taking Remeron 45mg Soltabs for my depression about a month ago, and I've noticed significant improvements in my mood and sleep patterns. The SolTab form is convenient; it dissolves quickly on my tongue, making it easy to take even at night. However, I've been experiencing some side effects, like increased appetite and weight gain, which I wasn't expecting. I'm curious to hear from others who have taken this medication: what were your experiences, and did you face any side effects? What can I do about weight gain and is it safe to continue treatment?

I'm on my third week of Remeron and so far, I'm experiencing Palms of hands and soles of feet redness or irritation. Is that normal? How long should that last?

Be sure to talk to your doctor about anything you're experiencing. They can help you manage the side effects or adjust your dosage if needed. Weight gain seems to be a common issue though.

I've heard about the weight gain. I've found that drinking plenty of water and eating a balanced diet helps manage it.

Remeron helped with the depression but made me feel like a zombie. I miss coffee. So, I'm searching for something new and it's a shame.

Just started Remeron, and so far, so good. Not much change on my weight for now but I'm really hoping it stays that way.

I've taken Remeron for two years. I also experienced strange dreams. But I am very skeptical about serotonin syndrome... can someone explain?
