mianserin and Dizziness

mianserin has been researched along with Dizziness in 4 studies

Mianserin: A tetracyclic compound with antidepressant effects. It may cause drowsiness and hematological problems. Its mechanism of therapeutic action is not well understood, although it apparently blocks alpha-adrenergic, histamine H1, and some types of serotonin receptors.
mianserin : A dibenzoazepine (specifically 1,2,3,4,10,14b-hexahydrodibenzo[c,f]pyrazino[1,2-a]azepine) methyl-substituted on N-2. Closely related to (and now mostly superseded by) the tetracyclic antidepressant mirtazapinean, it is an atypical antidepressant used in the treatment of depression throughout Europe and elsewhere.

Dizziness: An imprecise term which may refer to a sense of spatial disorientation, motion of the environment, or lightheadedness.

"Mirtazapine is a relatively new so-called noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressant, which is more specific and therefore generally better tolerated."6.71Mirtazapine is effective in the prophylactic treatment of chronic tension-type headache. ( Bendtsen, L; Jensen, R, 2004)
"Ninety-two outpatients with depressive disorders which met Research Diagnostic Criteria were treated either with mianserin or placebo in a 6-week controlled trial."5.05Placebo-controlled study of mianserin in depressed outpatients.
