Was the risk of fall linked to the Mirtazapine or made worse by it?

It only takes a split second for someone to fall....it is impossible to stop falls. It is more a case of limiting the risk....trip hazards etc. If Mirtazapine increases that risk then I may have to stop it. Same with Zopiclone (which really is for sleep), which the GP didn't want to prescribe because of the increased fall risk.
