Dr. Paul Grin answered

Specializes in Pain Management

Potential death: The maximum daily dose for Wellbutrin (bupropion) is 450 mg. Taking doses greater than 450 mg a day may increase the risk of serious side effects, including seizures and death. Ask your PCP for help and referral to a psychiatrist.
