Posso prendere Mirtazapina e Paracetamolo insieme?

You can take paracetamolo while you are taking mirtazapina as they are processed by different pathways in the liver and do not interfere with how the other is absorbed, broken down, or removed from the body.

They also work on different systems in the body (mirtazapine on brain chemicals for mood, and paracetamol on pain and temperature regulation), so they do not have overlapping side effects.

How to take mirtazapine and paracetamol safely

• Always follow the dosage instructions on the packet for paracetamol and do not exceed the maximum daily dose (usually 4000mg or eight 500mg tablets in 24 hours).

• If you feel unusually drowsy, speak to your pharmacist or doctor, as mirtazapine can sometimes cause tiredness on its own.

Pensieri suicidi e peggioramento della depressione

Mirtazapine can occasionally cause an increase in suicidal thoughts or autolesionismo, particularly when first starting treatment or changing doses. Patients and carers must monitor for any sudden changes in mood or behaviour.

Agranulocitosi (basso numero di globuli bianchi)

Mirtazapine can rarely cause a serious drop in white blood cells. You must contact a doctor immediately if you develop a fever, sore throat, mouth ulcers, or any other signs of infection.

Liver damage from overdose

Paracetamol is highly toxic to the liver in overdose. You must never exceed the maximum dose of 8 tablets (4g) in 24 hours and must check that other medicines (such as cold and flu remedies) do not also contain paracetamol.

Alcol

It is best to avoid or strictly limit alcohol while taking these medicines. Combining alcohol with paracetamol increases the risk of serious liver damage. Combining alcohol with mirtazapine can significantly increase drowsiness and impair your coordination and judgement.

Caffeina (Caffè, Tè, Bevande Energetiche)

Caffeine can counteract the sedative effects of mirtazapine, potentially making the medicine less effective for sleep or increasing feelings of anxiety.
