Forgive me if i posted in wrong area. So I ran out of mirtazapine last night (normally take 15mg daily) for a year now, possibly longer. I was stupid and forgot to get it filled. I need to know what I can take that mimics it's action, or at least somewhat...Today will be night two without it. So far I feel zero withdrawal effects (no zaps or anything yet) but I'm scared I won't be able to sleep tonight and wake up to go to the pharmacy tomorrow -- which I MUST DO....
What other meds can I take in place of it that somewhat mimic it's action? I already take NIGHTLY (in addition to the Remeron):
EDIT: This is my actual nightly sleep cocktail =|
Edit: Disclaimer: The OP seems to have a really high tolerance, but even with a high tolerance to every drug he's taking no one should attempt to take that much, as even lower doses will most likely kill you, as it's a combination of various CNS depressants. Don't do it!
--16mg up to 20mg clonzepam (all at once, under tongue 30 mins before bed). I have taken up to 22mg or so at night when I couldn't sleep due to stress.
--20mg OxyContin ER
--10mg Oxycodone IR
--15mg Remeron/mirtazapine
--25mg promethazine
-- 2 tablets of Trazadone, or 100mg
--350mg to 700mg of Soma.
--20mg max dosage of Belsomra/suvorexant (and I have never taken it but am on max dose)
--10mg Ambien (I just stopped taking Ambien once I got Belsomra)
--2 tablets of Doxylamine OTC 50mg
-- 4mg melatonin
--100mg 5HTP
--30mg DXM in hopes it helps "tolerance"
--0.1mg of clonidine in ADDITION to opioids (I was on Hydrmorphone before, 4mg 6X daily +Oxy ER, and the doctor switched my IR meds to oxycodone 10mg 5X daily and it's not even close to as strong as the hydrmorphone was. 2 weeks later I still have opioid withdrawal symptoms. If I take another pill they all go away, so it's WD still no question somehow lasting 2 weeks. )
-- 1 Cigarette while in bed, after all the pills it makes my head just hit the pillow.
I take all these meds AT ONCE/Together/same time. I also take multiple vitamins such as magnesium, etc.
Should I take MORE promethazine? I also have:
-Effexor ER 37.5 mg tablets
-Tramadol 50mg tablets
-Prozac 10mg tablets
- DXM 15mg tablets (not sure how this would help but figured I'd ask. Maybe serotonin increase?)And that's about it...Could add Benadryl if I have any also. Would any of those help?
I could up the trazadone dosage and up and promethazine. I could also take an extra 0.1mg tablet of Cloidine. But I thought since both Effexor and Tramadol affects NE and serotonin like Remeron I thought maybe they might do something -- AND then I just take antihistamines to make them more like Remeron?I don't know what else to try. Sorry if posted in wrong area.
I also have to take that I don't know if they will help:
--Effexor 37.5mg ER
--Tramadol 50mg
--10mg Prozac
