Bupropion Hcl Xl 150mg

I have been taking the Bupropion HCL XL 150MG for 5 days but have noticed little effect. It seems to me as if I am in-between how I should feel, I feel a little up, melancholy, calm but at the same time I feel not so motivated, a little placid and could easily sit and do nothing (all though I feel like I should be up doing something, does that make sense?) My question is would it hurt me to take two 150MG? Just to see if this gets me out of this limbo state. ## Hello, Ira! How are you? 5 days is far too soon to expect this medication to reach its full level of effectiveness in your body, it can take about a month for that to happen. And no, you definitely shouldn't adjust your dosage without your doctor's approval. Is there anything else I can help with?

My husband is taking bupropion hcl 150 mg medication in the morning along with citalopram 40 mg in the evening for depression. This is only the second day for the bupropion. He is 85 and also on Coumadiin. He is complaining this afternoon of like a stiff neck. Is this a reaction to the bupropion? He intends to stop taking the medication tomorrow morning until he can contact his primary care DR. Should he stop taking both medications citalopram tonight and bupropion tomorrow morning? Do we need to go to the ER yet today for these symtoms? ## Hello, Carol! How is your husband doing? At that point, it wasn't life-threatening to require a trip to the ER, but yes, the Bupropion has been known to cause a stiff neck and/or sore/stiff muscles in general in some people that take it.

I've been taking this medication for almost 4 weeks. The first two weeks taking the medication was great, but these last two weeks has been horrible. I've been having motion sickness for two weeks and a lil dizziness every once in awhile. It has helped with my nightmares, but I get so discouraged because the motion sickness is depressing. I wanted to see if the A101 pill or the 3331 150mg pill will make a difference. I've seen XL, SA and SR and it all confuses me why there are so many pills that are related to this medication. I am going to see if my Dr. can change it to a different number, the #13 pill is terrible. ## When a medication is available as a generic it is usually manufactured by various different pharmaceutical companies, whichever one you receive from any given...

WHAT MEDICATIONS CAN I NOT MIX WITH BUPROPN HCL 150MG XL ## Bupropion is an antidepressant that is also used for smoking cessation. As to the medications it should not be used with, I checked and there are actually over 300 different ones, so far too many for me to list here. However, if you have specific ones that you are looking for information on, I will gladly look them up for you. Can you post back with more information? One medication class I can tell you that you have to stay away from are MAOIs.

I was taking Bupropion 150 mg SR twice per day ( so i was taking a total of 300 mg per day). Then my Dr switched me to the bupropion HCL 150 mg XL once per day and said it was the same as taking 300 mg per day. It doesn't seem right to me. Any thoughts on why this makes sense? ## Your doctor may be referring to the notion that 150mgs of extended release Bupropion is similar to taking it twice per day; since it remains in your system for a much longer period of time. Perhaps it is still in your system by the time you would've previously taken your second dose. It's not 100% clear to me, but that's the only logical reasoning I can think of. They say if you take 150mgs of XL in the morning, then you shouldn't need to take anymore of it later in the day. Whereas with SR ...

a round medium sized, white colred, thick pill with the numbers 141 written on one side and nothing on the other side ## I did find a pill that is white, has 141 on it, and nothing on the other side. The only difference is it has an E in front of 141. Click on the link below to view the pill... If this is your pill it is Oxaprozin, Oxaprozin is used to relieve the inflammation, swelling, stiffness, and joint pain associated with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. If this is not your pill, please post back with more information about your pill so I can help you better. ## Bupropion hydrochloride (HCl) extended release (XL) 150mg Round, off-white tablet with 141 stamp Mfg: Actavis
