A member asked:
My friend has a very abusive problem with benzo pills(xanax,kalotapins etc). he just got prescribed mirtazapine, is it the same?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirtazapine for more information. You can compare the information about mechanism of action (MOA) with "benzo-info" on the Web about their MOA . For lookup purposes you'll need to know that the full name of "benzo pills" is "benzodiazepines."
