Suggest An Alternative For Mirtazapine Prescribed For Major Depression

I was on Mirtazapine for several years for major depression - it helped me until the drug company changed companies - whatever the new filler is does not help with my depression - only makes it worse. The mfg is Apotex - I don t remember the name of the other manufacturer. If necessary, I will have to take the non-generic Remeron, which will cost a fortune as the drug companies have no mercy! Thank your for your response.
