What Causes Twitching Muscles In Arms After Taking Mirtazapine?

my husband took his first dose of 15mg Mirtazapine, and is experiencing twitching muscles in his arms. Is this a common reaction for a first dose? Will it subside, or should we taper back tomorrow. He was prescribed this to go along with 100 mg of Sertraline for severe depression.

This may be sideeffects, but to confirm this you should do ionized and non ionized calcium. Calcium and supplementation should be started to use once daily.
