Wellbutrin (bupropion) & Prozac: Sometimes wellbutrin (bupropion) is added to Prozac in an effort to augment its antidepressant effect. Other times, low dose wellbutrin (bupropion) is added to counteract sexual side effects of prozac, such as lowered sexual desire and difficulty with orgasm. Although incidence of sexual side effects was relatively low during clinical trials, some later reports indicate up to 75% of patients do experience these.
