Was on Wellbutrin only about a month, just didn't seem to be working or helping at all. Dr finally decided to try Lexapro. Just curious if I'll experience any major effects while tapering Wellbutrin (only on it a month) and start up effects of Lexapro....these in between stages are horrible because it's hard to tell which is the culprit. I just need some relief. Second guessing my decision to stop paxil after years of being on it- maybe I should have just stayed on it. ## Why did you stop the Paxil? The FDA does warn that while switching medications, you may experience nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, rebound depression, and anxiety. What dosage were you taking of the Paxil?

I was on Viibryd for almost a year and felt like it wasn't working anymore so my dr switched me to Wellbutrin. How long before I know if it's right for me? It's been 4 days and I feel horrible. ## At this time, you are most likely experiencing withdrawal effects from the Viibryd, as well as side effects from starting the Wellbutrin, which the NIH lists as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, anxiety, insomnia, diarrhea, and dry mouth. It usually takes about 4 to 5 weeks for your body to adjust, so things settle down and you discover how much the new medication will help you. Has there been any change?

Does anyone else have major anxiety while taking Wellbutrin xl ? I started taking 300mg in September and it has lifted my depression immensely . But the anxiety is really getting bad and makes me question every decision I make in day to day life . I feel like I'm going crazy ! Anyone else have this issue or even advice /opinions would be helpful ! ## Unfortunately, the FDA lists anxiety as being one of the most common side effects that this medication is known to cause, along with nausea, dizziness, headache, and nervousness. I tried it years ago, for smoking cessation, and it made me feel like I had just drunk several pots of coffee, so I had to stop taking it. Have you informed your doctor?

Prescribed for depression ## For years on wellbutrin I've complained of chronic adult acne, insomnia, and tons of anxiety and uncontrollable carb eating problems. Many many doctors. Off the wellbutrin for 4 weeks - on my own, no anxiety, beautiful skin, weight loss, controllable eating and at last good sleep. I found this out on my own ## I took a ua and it came back positive for methamphetamine and I don't do any kind of drugs. can any of my meds cause this? I take wellbutrin bupropion 75mg and morph 30, nexium 40, gabapentin 400 ## The FDA lists this medication as containing the active ingredient Bupropion. Its side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, nervousness, and insomnia. Erinfaith, are you on any other medications? How long were you tak...

I'm now on wellbutrin, but was recently prescribed contrave. Any info on stopping wellbutrin and starting contrave? The dosage I now take for the wellbutrin will be the same with the start of contrave. ## Hello, Angel! How are you? If the dosage is the same, you should be able to just do a clean switch from on to the other. One of the ingredients in Contrave is Bupropion, which is also the active ingredient in Wellbutrin. Did your doctor provide any specific instructions? The FDA classifies Contrave as a weight loss medication. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and insomnia.

Anyone taking Pamelor and welbutrin together ## Yes I am taking Pamelor 50mg with Wellbutrin 150mg, it seems to work but i still have my ups and downs. Dr going to check on me to see if she needs to up the dosage. Everyone says that it's a bad combo, I do not believe that or else my dr wouldn't have prescribed it to me. ## The NIH does warn that there is a risk of seizures, when you combine Amitriptyline, and Wellbutrin, since both can lower your seizure threshold, so they should only be taken together, with a doctor's approval, and regular monitoring. Other side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, and mood changes. If you have a history of experiencing seizures, you should consult your doctor about trying other options. Are there any other questions?

So I have been on Lexapro 10mg for a few years and I didnt feel as if it was helping me at all. Plus I was always tired and gaining weight. My doctor suggested switching to wellbutrin. He told me to take a 150mg wellbutrin and lower my Lexapro dose to 5mg for 2 weeks, then to take 300mg wellbutrin and stop Lexapro. I am almost at the 2 week make and I feel like I have so many side effects and I don't know if it's withdrawal or the new meds, or a combo of both, or maybe I am getting sick? I have headaches, nausea, loss of appetite, lightheaded, out of it, dry mouth, stomach pain, gas, jittery, and heart palpitations at times. I'm afraid to start the 300mg and stop the Lexapro in a few days. Do these sound like symptoms of the withdrawal and starting up those drugs? Its not go...

Hi I started taking the generic Wellbutrin SR 10 days ago. The first day I took 100 mg in the morning and at night and I felt really sick to my stomach so the next day I got a crazy idea of cutting the 100mg in half and taking half in morning and half at night. I was ok until two days ago and I feel like I have the worst hangover. I finally called my doctor and she put me on bupropion hcl 75 mg cause she said you can't cut the SR pills. I took the bupropion hcl this morning and I still feel like i have worst hangover again. Did I mess myself up by taking the split pills for that many days or am I just not able to take this medicine? ## All medications carry the risk of causing side effects, the FDA lists the ones for this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache,...

I started on Wellbutrin XL 150mg 10 days ago, taking it at 9pm nightly with my Lamictal. I'm exhausted, irritable, and depressed in the evenings. I know it takes up to a month for the Wellbutrin to take full effect, so could the medication be wearing off around 7? I feel like a functioning member of society (finally!!) during the day, but my poor SO is still seeing the grumpy, shut down woman in the evenings. ## It might not be the best for you, there are higher ones your doctor can prescribe for you. Are you on any other medications? The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, nervousness, and insomnia. It could also be that the time released formulation doesn't work well for you and you may need to take the regul...

Or is valeant wellbutrin better,my wife has depression and its my land brand and I'm trying to quit smoking and mild depression. ## Just wondering if mylan wellbutrin is as good as valeant wellbutrin. I here a lot of bad stuff about mylan so can someone tell me if generic mylan is as good as valeant,I only have to pay $16 for valeant brand and mylan is fully covered. ## Hello, RayRayJr! How are you? In the years I've spent on sites like this, I've heard very, very few complaints about anything manufactured by Mylan. I've even taken quite a few of their medications myself and they worked just fine. This one may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth. Is there anything else I can help with?

Recently I started taking Wellbutrin SR (generic). I'm prescribed 100 mg twice daily. However, I've been taking been taking all 200 mg once a day in the morning. Ultimately, is the SR version still effective if only taken once a day? Why do people usually take it twice a day? Will I experience any disadvantages by taking it all at once? Today is my 8th day on Wellbutrin. I definitely feel SOME improvement. ## It is usually best to take it twice daily, as directed, due to the fact that its efficacy depends on it being maintained at a certain level in your body. Taking them both, at once, does not provide you a full 24 hours of medication. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and mood changes. Is there anything else I can help w...

I'm a 26 year old female taking 450mg once daily. I've been on Wellbutrin for proabably about a year and a half and it helps so much with depression and it helped me lose weight! The pounds were dropping! I also was doing weight watchers but even when I ate horrible I would lose or not gain, at all! Now.... it's not helping me with weight loss? My depression is at bay but it's not helping me keep weight off anymore... has anyone else have this happen? Idk what to do... advice please. ## Wellbutrin by itself is generally weight neutral and doesn't cause weight gain, or weight loss.

Hi All, I just started 150mg Wellbutrin XR and 25mg zoloft 1 month ago for Binge Eating Disorder. I loved it! Trying to find the right combo though. 2 weeks ago I couldn't sleep at night. So I started Trazadone at night. It's a tad better but it lessens the Wellbutrin affect with my BED. I'm wondering how many take the instant release? Thinking maybe 75mg in the am and then half that the afternoon to help me sleep better. Any ideas? ## That might help, it really depends on what works for you, since all of us are different and may react differently to any given medication. It is something you could speak to your doctor about trying to see if they approve.

has anyone taken lexapro 10mg and Wellbutrin together? I've been on lexapro for 6mon. Love it but doesn't seem to be working. Small case of anxiety and depression are coming back. Dr just put me on Wellbutrin. Afraid to take it because of the possible side effects. had none with lexapro. Just felt better within 4 days ## Hello, Melanie! How are you? Actually, it's advised that these two medications not be taken together. The Lexapro tends to increase the toxicity of the Wellbutrin, which could cause life threatening issues. Are you seeing a specialist or just a PCP? The typical side effects of Wellbutrin, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, nervousness and insomnia. ## You could be setting yourself up for a mild/medium case of Serotonin Sy...

i take wellbutrin, paxil. kolatapin, and adderall could they thin your blood ## dose wellbutin thin your blood ?? ## No, that is not a normal side effect of these medications. The FDA lists them as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, insomnia, nervousness, and weight changes. Are you having an issue with blood thinning? Are these the only medication you are currently taking? What are your diagnosed medical conditions? There is really no way to say how any medication will affect anyone that tries it, so it can't be 100% ruled out, but it is unlikely that the listed ones would cause any dangerous blood thinning.

I've been taking Amoxi-Clav 875mg 2 times a day along with 450 mg of Wellbutrin, 300 mg of Lithium and 600 mg of Seroquel. Are there any bad side effects I should be aware of? ## The Amoxi-Clav is just a generic for the antibiotic Augmentin, which is used to treat various types of bacterial infections. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, diarrhea, headache, and non-allergic skin rash. Though the FDA also warns that taking them together might make these side effects more severe. How are you doing on them? Have you had any serious issues?
