Question 1

whats the best time to take concerta and wellbutrin (bupropion) if taken separately?

Accepted Answer

Ask the Dr: Dosage and scheduling is part of prescribing. Ask the Dr who prescribed the meds.  A second best source might be your pharmacist. In both cases also advise them of ALL meds you take and ask for things to watch for. Best!

Question 2

i take wellbutrin (bupropion) previcid plaquenil zantac &elivil.dx of gastroparisis ibs am early ai disorder. what is the best otc med for pain in joints?

Accepted Answer

Tylenol (acetaminophen): The only safe over-the-counter pain medication you can take with your gastrointestinal problems would be tylenol (acetaminophen). I hope this helps. Best wishes.

Question 3

will splitting my 300mg wellbutrin (bupropion) xl in half be okay or does it affect the release time? i'd like to take 150.

Accepted Answer

Time-released pills : or capsules should not be split. If you feel that your dose is too high, discuss changing to WB XR 150 mg. with your psychiatrist. Reductions in doses of psychotropic medications must be done safely, with monitoring for symptom recurrence. I assume you took SSRI's in the past, not simultaneously with each other or with WB, as the risk of serotonin syndrome would be increased.

Question 4

i take 3 150mg of wellbutrin (bupropion) a day. to get best result can i take 2 in the morning and 1 in the afternoon or all 3 together. 12 hr release pills.

Accepted Answer

Wellbutrin (bupropion): U can take it twice a day in the mmorning and the second dose before 4 pm. Since wellbutrin (bupropion) if taken  late can interfere with sleep.

Question 5

i was on wellbutrin (bupropion) 300 mg and they switched me to wellbutrin (bupropion) sr 150 2 times daily is it going to take my body few weeks to feel the differences?

Accepted Answer

Might not feel it.: You may not feel any difference.  If you were on wellbutrin (bupropion) xl (extended release) 300mg one tablet per day - it is a once a day medication. 2 doses of wellbutrin (bupropion) sr (slow release) is would just be over two doses.

Question 6

just started on wellbutrin (bupropion) and am extremely depressed, when can i expect to start feeling better? also,is it best to take in the morning or bedtime?

Accepted Answer

Depression &amp;Bupropio:    Some people begin to feel better quickly but others may take a month or more to notice any change. You should let your prescribing physician know if you don't feel any better, if you feel worse or if you have any suicidal ideation so your Dr. can adjust your medication. 
   If you feel sedated take it at bedtime, conversely if you feel energized take it in the AM but consult your prescriber 1st
