WELLBUTRIN SR & AS USE--any advers reactions

[ROIDRANGER]

I don't understand why he has you on SR twice a day. The whole point of SR (sustained release) is that you can take it once in the morning.

He may have calculated the dose solely on bodyweight...

funny he told me to take it at night before sleep, and start off w/ one a day--only cause might give stomach indigestion....then he said move to 2/day -----and there was no mistake it boldly said SR on the script before i dropped it off--so it wasnt pharmicist mistake..


im only 200lbs--but real hard lean & shredded
(lost 5 lbs from being sick -not eating & sleeping w/in wk...thats why i went to the doc)



so does this doctor think im nuts or what?????

I've been on amitrip. zoloft, prozac, buspar, sleeping meds. Screw all that just stay on test! I'm all right then!

Wellbutrin is the last thing you want to take for anxiety, but great for treating depression. Think of wellbutrin as ephedrine's 2nd cousin, and you're not that far off.

If anxiety is the problem get some paxil. Lots of side effects like no sex drive and lethargy, but I know of nothing that kills anxiety as well.

If you have anxiety & depression you probably should ask your doc about effexor or prozac.

 

[ROIDRANGER]

effexor--whats this..sides..

dont need less sexual desire, ive been very good at keeping myself up....

combatting gear side effects to get to a goal is enough, not looking for more sides from a medication......

...ill continue to use gear--period....
...maybe ill try this wellbutrin for a while....
...and how about a football (xanax)once in while for anxiety....

....and finally will this wellbutrin help me sleep, as thats what he said he prescribed it to me for......but that doesnt seem the case cause doesnt anxiety keep you up and restless or give you insomnia..?????

 

[jankster]

tell him you're high anxiety.. wellbutrin shouldn't be used in this case imho (having used it)

it would be more ideal if you were sleeping TOO much and were apathetic to things that cause anxiety




OH yeah all you guys on gear.. wellbutrin causes a decent load on the kidneys, keep that in mind

Hey Ranger, Ive taken Wellbutrin sr for 3-4 years now,during the fall, and winter months.It is the ony one that Ive tried, that dosnt have all kinds of sexual side effects.
As far as helping you sleep goes,not only no but hell no its not good for that,the first couple of weeks you take it,it gives You the damndest nightmares Youve ever had.And its pretty bad about giving You headaches, but most of those side effects go away after the first 2 weeks or so.
It dosnt seem too affect the workouts at all, and actually since it kinda perks you up, it makes You wanna go to the gym. Good Luck

elaborate more for me.....

..he said i was depressed........i told him that my immune system felt like it was down.......sleeping patterns sucked and that i got very little sleep or had trouble getting to sleep & when i finally did felt like i couldnt get up.....told him that my appetite was less than it should be.....told hin that im edgy or paranoid sometimes....and w/out warning can get emotional over whelmed.....told him im very lethargic all the time...

....this is what he got me to tell him after he gave me some depression survey.....

 

[angelsfire]

The sexual sides from paxil and the other ssri's go away with time

 

[Suspension]

The sexual sides from paxil may or may not go away.
A good way to combat the sides is by taking wellbutrin with the paxil, or ginko biloba with the paxil.

I was on paxil for a while, couldnt bust a nut for the life of me. Currently, im on both, and doing just fine.

My doc prescribed me Wellbutrin and Xanax about a month ago..
I have definately noticed that my temperment is better.
