A member asked:

Could you please tell me is 15mg lexapro (escitalopram) and 45mg remeron is a high dose for g a d.should i reduce some thanks?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably no: IN general, a dose is not too high if it is needed for a full effect, and it is not causing side effects. More specifically, 15 mg escitalopram and 45 mg mirtazap;ine are within a standard range.
