What Does Act And Anc Mean On A Prescription?

Updated

I have been taking Bupropion XL 300 MG TAB ACT. I filled my prescription 3 hrs ago and i was given Bupropion XL 300 MG TAB ANC. I am feeling very strange. The pharmacy said they are exactly the same, just different manufacturers. I have never felt this way on the other Bupropion.

Hello, Rita! How are you doing? Has there been any change? Are you on any other medications?

Can you please describe your feeling strange more specifically?

The NIH does warn that it can cause side effects such as nausea, dizziness, headache, nervousness, and weight loss.

And yes, your pharmacist is correct, they have just been manufactured by different companies.

Generic Wellbutrin isn’t the same as brand name. Main ingredient is the same but formula is different, so doesn’t metabolize the same. Every manufacturer is different. If what you were taking was working, find a pharmacy that has that brand. Otherwise look for a program from the brand name manufacturer. For me, Teva was the worst-ears ringing, hair falling out, and depression returned. I found a program that charges $5 per month for the real thing. Check with your doctor.
