[Ry...] Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I understand the logic on the rate of taper, but I am interested in the method (liquid or dry cut and weigh) from those of you that have experience with this. I am not a taper expert as you can see from my signature. I do plan to wean off the Mirt sometime in the near future. I have experimented with dissolving in OraPlus but I felt it was not the most accurate. Reason being, OraPlus is highly viscous and coats the bottle which leads to 10% or more in compounding losses. Also, the oral syringes i find are marked in either 1/2 or 1/4 ml increments. If I want to go extremely slow, it seems this limits how small I can cut. I believe dissolving in water and measuring in a 100ml graduated cylinder would be most accurate, but from what I read, Mirtazapine does not dissolve well in water. Is a dry cut with a good scale the best route? If so, would it be better to take chunks off or crush to a fine powder, weigh and put in a capsule? Or should I stick with OraPlus? Thanks for any insight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
