I didn't know that Remeron suppressed the immune system. Is this common knowledge?

One thing I know about Remeron and colds is that if you have a runny nose, it is sure to help, as it is a pretty potent antihistamine (dries you up and helps allergies).

There is a rare but potential side effect that occurs in some people, where the white blood cell count drops during treatment.
