[|Human|] Okay. Dr. Grief, I d like to know a little about Mirtazapine, something to stimulate my appetite, before I take it, please. I m 77, have Prostate Cancer with mets to the Nodes, no medical assistance yet, and have lost my appetite. Earlier, I lost 60 pounds, gained back 30 but I m back down to 138 this morning and I don t have an appetite.
[|AI|]  His understand your concern. Mirtazapine is antidepressant, and it increases your apatite to some extent and there is weight gain occur. But its role in cancer is questionable?/Prostate cancer with Mets require chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Weight loss is the main features of any cancer. So Go for medical assistance as you did not have till date. It is surprising, so please take consultation to cancer specialist and get help. Earlier the treatment better the response. Hope for the best. Still have a query then feel free to ask. Happy to help you. Take care.
