what are side effects of WELLBUTRIN?

Answer 1

the UK online pharmacy where I order other precription meds has some info on it, but I never used it myself. As far as I have heard it is a strong med and should be taken only after consulting a doc.

Answer 2

WELLBUTRIN XL is not for everyone. There is a risk of seizure with WELLBUTRIN XL which increases with higher doses. Taking more than 450 mg/day increases the chance of serious side effects. Don’t use it if you’ve had a seizure or eating disorder, or if you abruptly stop using alcohol or sedatives. Don’t take with MAOIs, or medicines that contain bupropion. When used with a nicotine patch or alone, there is a risk of increased blood pressure, sometimes severe. To reduce risk of serious side effects, tell your doctor if you have liver or kidney problems. Other side effects may include weight loss, dry mouth, nausea, difficulty sleeping, dizziness, sore throat, constipation, or flatulence.

WELLBUTRIN XL is approved only for adults 18 years and over. In some children and teens, antidepressants increase suicidal thoughts or actions. Whether or not you are taking antidepressants, you or your family should call the doctor right away if you have worsening depression, thoughts of suicide, or sudden or severe changes in mood or behavior, especially at the beginning of treatment or after a change in dose (see Medication Guide: What is important information I should know and share with my family about taking antidepressants?).




summary::: seizure, severe blood pressure, weight loss, dry mouth, nausea, difficulty sleeping, dizziness, sore throat, constipation, or flatulence.

Answer 3

The only side effect I have is dry mouth.
Possible side effects are endless. Every body chemistry is different. Many people have to try different drugs and doses over many months to find the right balance.
Read all the publications you can to inform yourself-don't rely on anyone else.
Good luck!

Answer 4

I've taken it......do NOT advise it to anyone.....LOTS of side effects that are very unpleasant.....excessive sweating, thus body odor, very bad taste in the mouth, along with a dry mouth, affects digestion in various ways, and I experienced NOTHING in the way of relief of any symptoms of depression.....only made it worse. Also wound up with some horrific hallucinations eventually, when it was mixed with other drugs of its type.......Don't take it... you'll regret it the rest of your life.
