I started on Wellbutrin XL around mid November. I'm up to 300 mg/day. Anyway, when I got a refill two weeks ago, I was told that a generic was available. But since I've been on the generic, I don't feel like the medicine is working as well as when I took the namebrand. Before, it cut my appetite so I wasn't boredom/depression eating like before. It gave me energy so I didn't sleep all day. But since the switch, my appetite is ridiculous, I'm snippy all the time, and I'm constantly tired.
So is it possible that the generic isn't working as well for me as the name brand? My friend said that Rx meds are so strictly regulated, they should just be the same thing. And will Rx insurance allow you to choose the name brand over the generic, if a generic is available?
