Using busPIRone together with mirtazapine can increase the risk of a rare but serious condition called the serotonin syndrome, which may include symptoms such as confusion, hallucination, seizure, extreme changes in blood pressure, increased heart rate, fever, excessive sweating, shivering or shaking, blurred vision Efficacy plateaus at about 30–40 mg of citalopram, 10–15 mg of escitalopram, 20–30 mg of fluoxetine, 20–30 mg of paroxetine, and 75–100 mg of sertraline
