Can silenor wellbutrin (bupropion) sr and gaba supplements be taken safely together?

Dr. Pamela Pappas answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Not needed: Wellbutrin (bupropion) and silenor can be taken within the same day -- separately, usually. Silenor is a sleep medication and wellbutrin (bupropion) sr can be activating (better taken in morning). If using silenor, you should not take GABA supplements since they can be sedating also.
