Bupropion: How Did It Effect Your Digestion?

Updated

Hey everbody,
for those on Bupropion, how did it effect your digestion?

Especially those, who are having/had a "good" digestion with like 2 or 3 times defecation a day - did the Bupropion somehow made you constipated so that you couldnt go that often any more? And how long after the first pill did this start?

Thanks much!

This medication could cause constipation as a side effect, according to NIH reports, you may also experience nausea, dizziness, headache, and mood changes.

However, it really is not normal to defecate 2 to 3 times a day. Most people go once a day, or less.

Has anyone else experienced this issue with this medication?

Most people go once a day, or as little as once a week.

Ofc it is normal to go 2-3 times a day (just check the transit times of food); however it is a common misconception that it would be still normal to go 2-3 times a week, cause most people are rather constipated and thus "forming" the standard.
