I take 300 mg effexor xr and 150 SR bupron....generic and less bowel movements than before, more crampy but in general it works for me....want off effexor becuz I think I have built a tolerance. maybe I've lost a few pounds....feel more even, less tired all the time! honestly I never totally know with psych meds cuz they build up slow and I'm moody anyway ...hope this helped some.

There can be some risks to combining them, such as developing serotonin syndrome, which can be dangerous, or fatal, so you should not combine them, unless your doctor instructs you to do so, and is monitoring you regularly.

That said, they are sometimes combined, when someone isn't responding well to other medications, or treatment options.

Side effects to Wellbutrin, and Effexor may include nausea, dizziness, headache, drowsiness, mood changes, and weight changes.

Are you on any other medications?
