Mirtazapine is an antidepressant medication used for the treatment of major depression and other mood disorders. It works by increasing levels of serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain, thereby improving mood and reducing depressive symptoms.

The medication is taken orally, usually once daily at bedtime. It is effective in alleviating depressive symptoms and improving sleep quality.

Side effects may include drowsiness, weight gain, dry mouth, and dizziness. In rare cases, severe reactions such as suicidal thoughts or worsening depression may occur. Close monitoring is essential, especially at the beginning of treatment.

Consult your doctor to discuss the benefits and risks of treatment with Mirtazapine. Follow the prescribed dosage and adhere to all medical recommendations.
