[|Human|] I am on Hospice with Ovarian and Kidney cancer...since mid april they have  prescribed remeron (generic name is mirazapin 25 mg. One table taken late at night allows me deep sleep  until nearly noon each day.  I have incredibly complex but pleasant dreams, no complaints there, but am I supposed to be on this  med forever...is it too strong perhaps?
[|AI|]  Hi, Remeron contains mirtazapine which is an antidepressant with sedating properties. If used only to induce sleep. The usual dosage is 7.5 to 15 mg at bedtime, but you mention that you are taking 25 mg per day. In my opinion, you should discuss with your doctor regarding a dose reduction as you are sleeping till noon daily. You do not need to be on this forever and neither is it habit-forming. Best wishes.
