Mirtazapine-Appetite stimulant, anybody?
Does anyone here have any experience with Mirtazapine (Remeron) as an appetite stimulant for dogs?
I know that Mirtazapine(It's an anti-depressant for people. It also stimulates appetite and has an anti-nausea component. People gain weight on it) and Cyproheptadine are given to dogs as appetite stimulants. Mirtazapine works better on dogs, while Cyproheptadine works better on cats.
The Vets around here know nothing about it. Dr. Allen from Dechra doesn't, either. I cannot find any information regarding DOG DOSE. There is a Vet who writes about it (Dr. Brooks) but she cannot give out a dose because she has to see the pet. That's not possible.
If anyone has any experience, or have found any articles with the dosage spelled out, I would appreciate your input. I may not need to give it to my dog, but I would like to know about dosage. Mine is 10 lbs.
TIA
