Mirtajoy 7.5 Tablet

Mirtajoy 7.5 Tablet contains Mirtazapine 7.5 mg (as mirtazapine) tablet. Prescription required.

Treatment of major depressive disorder (depression); may also help associated anxiety and insomnia as advised by a doctor.

Mirtazapine is an antidepressant that enhances noradrenergic and serotonergic neurotransmission by blocking central presynaptic alpha-2 receptors. It also blocks certain serotonin receptors (5-HT2/5-HT3) and histamine H1 receptors, which can reduce nausea and may cause sedation.

Take exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Usually taken once daily at bedtime due to drowsiness; can be taken with or without food. Swallow the tablet with water; do not stop suddenly without medical advice.

Drowsiness, dizziness, increased appetite, weight gain, dry mouth, constipation, fatigue, abnormal dreams

Prescription-only antidepressant. May cause sedation—avoid driving/operating machinery until you know its effect. Monitor for worsening depression, suicidal thoughts, or unusual behavior changes especially in young adults. Use caution in elderly (falls), liver or kidney disease, epilepsy, bipolar disorder/mania, glaucoma, and heart disease. Rare risk of low white blood cells (seek care for fever/sore throat) and serotonin syndrome (agitation, sweating, tremor). Do not stop abruptly; taper as advised.

MAO inhibitors (contraindicated/avoid), other serotonergic drugs (SSRIs/SNRIs, triptans, tramadol, linezolid, lithium, St John’s wort) increasing serotonin syndrome risk, CNS depressants (benzodiazepines, opioids, alcohol) increasing drowsiness, strong CYP3A4 inducers (carbamazepine, phenytoin, rifampicin) may reduce effect, CYP inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole) may increase levels, anticoagulants like warfarin (monitor INR)

Store at room temperature (below 25°C), in original pack, protected from moisture and light. Keep out of reach of children.
