Can I take 90 and Mirtazapine together?

Why this happens

Both alcohol and mirtazapine act as central nervous system depressants. This means they both slow down brain activity. When taken together, their effects add up, leading to much stronger sedation than either would cause on its own.

It is best to avoid or strictly limit alcohol while taking mirtazapine. Because this combination can make you very sleepy and less alert, you must not drive or operate machinery. In the UK, it is an offence to drive if your ability is impaired by any drug, including prescription medicines and alcohol.
