Real infection?: Many people have MRSA living on their skin without causing any problems or ever invading.

i take wellbutrin (bupropion) xl 300mg. i just ran out & must go 2wks until i can get in with my psychiatrist. will it stay in my bloodstream at all until then?

Accepted Answer

Wellbutrin (bupropion) XL: A single dose of wellbutrin (bupropion) xl is not likely to last in the blood for two weeks. There are at least two problems with this situation: the lack of an active medication can bring back the symptoms that it was treating; and the abrupt drop in the wellbutrin (bupropion) level can cause unpleasant withdrawal symptoms. Please call your psychiatrist to explain your situation asap.
