INDICATIONS AND CLINICAL USE
ADULTS
Zym-MIRTAZAPINE (mirtazapine) is indicated for the symptomatic relief
of depressive illness.
LONG-TERM USE OF MIRTAZAPINE
The efficacy of mirtazapine in maintaining a response in patients with
major depressive disorder for
up to 40 weeks following 8 - 12 weeks of initial open-label treatment
was demonstrated in a placebo-
controlled trial. Nevertheless, the physician who elects to use
Zym-MIRTAZAPINE for extended
periods should periodically evaluate the long-term response of the
individual patient to the drug.
GERIATRICS (> 65 YEARS OF AGE):
Evidence from clinical trials and experience suggests that use in
geriatric populations may be
associated with differences in safety or effectiveness. A brief
discussion can be found in the
appropriate sections [see WARNINGS AND
PRECAUTIONS-Neurological-Somnolence; Special
Populations-Geriatrics (> 65 years
