description Mirtazapine is a new antidepressant that can increase noradrenergic and serotonergic neurotransmission. It is also a postsynaptic antagonist of 5-HT(2) and 5-HT(3). In addition, it has only a weak affinity for 5-HT(1) receptors and has very weak muscarinic anticholinergic and histamine (H(1)) antagonist properties. We report a case of hypertensive urgency that ensued after a patient took a single low dose of mirtazapine.
