Is mirtazapine more effective at lower doses?

i remember my old RN nurse telling me it is more effective for sleeping at lower doses. or maybe i remember wrong and it’s more effective for anxiety at lower doses? i’m pretty sure she was referring to sleep effectiveness, but she definitely said lower doses were more effective in whatever she was referring to. this all seems really counter intuitive, cause i’ve never heard of a drug that is more effective at lower doses.

No idea but medical professionals get some knowledge. I’ve a friend who was a psych nurse for years and his knowledge is beyond most folk who use this website. It’s different knowledge but they do pick up on things.

As far as I know, the lower the dose, the more sedating and the higher the dose, the more activating.
