What are Wellbutrin sideeffects?

Answer 1

The first few days on 150 mgs twice per day kept me up until 3 in the morning and I had bad dreams. Otherwise I think it's a godsend. It's helped my depression without that numb, apathetic feeling you get from other medications. I've since quit smoking. It still keeps me up at night but it's slowly getting better. I find that going to the gym helps my sleep patterns. Do not consume lots of alcohol with Wellbutrin. I'd say 2 drinks max or you'll be toast.

AnswerWellbutrin is used specifically for bipolar patients, but it has been found to be affective in helping smokers stop smoking.

NOTE: Many of the common side effects should go away within 6 - 8 weeks.

Answer 2

Well...you'll feel the effects of the alcohol a lot faster, and you won't be able to drink as much as you normally do. It causes me to get sleepier on alcohol as well. I enjoy having a drink every now and then, but the Wellbutrin makes it less enjoyable.
