Mirtazapine, known as Remeron, is a drug for the treatment of depression with a special mechanism of action that is different from other antidepressants. It blocks Alpha 2 receptors in the brain, which is responsible for negative Feedback) for the release of norepinephrine particles. The blockage of these receptors increases the proportion of norepinephrine in the brain. In addition, this drug increases the secretion of serotonin (Serotonin) as well as inhibition of subtypes of serotonin receptors. Thus, the risk of side effects such as anxiety, poor sleep, nausea, and impaired sexual performance characteristic of drugs that inhibit SSRI reuptake is reduced, so that the antidepressant effect of other serotonin receptors is not limited.
It is also effective for preventing anxiety, so it can be of great benefit in treating depression with anxiety disorders. It also improves sleep patterns in people with depression.
