I passed on your message to Dr. Pact. But you should know that Remeron is
highly unusual in that doses below 30 mg. often have more side effects -
especially sedation - than doses 30 mg and higher. There are technical
reasons for this. Dr. Pact always starts patients at 30 mg at bedtime. So I
recommend trying 30 mg.
If you and your neuro have any further questions, you can contact Dr. Pact
at

(919) 932-9111
(It would be better for your neuro to call.)
Regards,
Reed Richter
