Some of the most concerning adverse effects from taking Remeron include psychological effects. This includes sudden behavioral changes, increased symptoms of depression or anxiety, panic episodes, or thought of self-harm or suicide. Speak with your prescribing doctor immediately if you are experiencing any of these psychological side effects before they worsen.
Regardless of some of the negative side effects, Remeron is still abused. People who abuse this drug do so by taking it without a prescription, taking more than the prescribed amount, or mixing it with other drugs or alcohol to enhance the mood-boosting effects. Abusing this drug increases the chances of experiencing worsening side effects, and can lead to serious health issues.
Common side effects from abusing Remeron include stomach cramps, vomiting, diarrhea, nightmares, convulsion, cognitive problems, and suicidal ideations or attempts.
Remeron can have negative interactions when mixed with other drugs and it is crucial that you inform your prescribing doctor of any current medications and any past or current medical conditions to avoid dangerous toxicity.
