She prescribed me Regular Wellbutrin 100mg twice per day. I do not want the regular wellbutrin as it will make me shakey, and I will not follow through with taking 2 pills per day...

Avatar n tn I have now been taking 150mg of Wellbutrin XL for about three months, and have noticed no imprvement. If anything, my libido has diminished even more. Since most people report a boost in sex drive with the Wellbutrin, I was wondering if I am just an atypical case, or if perhaps my dosage is not high enough to experience the improvement. Thanks for your help!
Avatar f tn Bupropion can cause pounding of heart and palpitations. It usually does not cause high blood pressure. If the high blood pressure is drug related, it will come down in 2-3 days. If the high BP persists, please get this investigated, monitored and treated. Take care! The medical advice given should not be considered a substitute for medical care provided by a doctor who can examine you.
Avatar m tn There may be a moderate drug interaction between atenolol and bupropion due to their effect on blood pressure. It is a good idea for you to monitor your blood pressure, especially with your medical history of postural orthostatic condition. For more information, please go to: 1.

541196 tn?1293552936 Does anyone take medication for high blood pressure and is pregnant? If so, could you please tell me what you take and how successful it is? My dr. just prescribed me an ACE inhibitor that has a big ole warning about death to fetus. I am not pregnant, but my husband and I have been trying. We put our trying on hold for a few months, but would like to resume soon and we aren't super careful with protection now... leave it to God.

Avatar f tn Hello, My mother has been experiencing extreme high blood pressure first thing in the morning 198/108 and it then goes down within a couple of hours. She has never had high blood pressure and only takes atentnol for MVP. She does suffer from anxiety and has gone down on the dose of her Zolft, Busbar and Nurantun (excuse the spelling). She went to the hospital one moring with high blood pressure and they kept her all night checking her blood and doing a stress test, all came back ok.
Avatar f tn It finally dawned on me I reduced my Wellbutrin XL since this crazy blood pressure started. He wrote me a script for Metorolol 25mg ER. A blood pressure medication which side affects made me go hell no? Back to the original question Did the reduction bring back my panic attacks? I took it this morning at home it was 120/84 I would rather go back up on my Wellbutrin. I called my Dr. which prescribes my pych meds he said the reduction should not have caused it.

Avatar m tn Vyvanse is not a good medicine for people with high blood pressure and you might talk with your doctor and see if there are alternatives. Beta blockers do antagonize the effects of vyvanse. Maybe a calcium channel blocker or an ACE inhibitor would be better--but first check and see if Vyvanse is a must for you.
Avatar f tn I take Wellbutrin XL 300 mg once a day and Tramadol 50 mg. every six hours. I have not noticed any side effects at all using these two together. Also don't notice any difference in pain. Now I'm also taking Neurontin and Naproxen on top of it....now I have some side effects! Take care and I hope you feel better.

My depression has subsided mildly, but im not sure if this is going to help my ADHD at all... it feels like its escalating. Do any of these go away after the first few weeks?

Avatar n tn I was very recently prescribed Wellbutrin XL, after trying several medications that have not helped [including Wellbutrin SR]. When I saw my doctor, she simply said 'I'm putting you on Wellbutrin twice daily' and I assumed it would be the SR. But what I was given was XL, with the instructions to take it twice a day [morning and around noon]. My doctor's office is closed today, or I would have asked her. I did ask the pharmacist, and he said that yes, this is okay.
656309 tn?1224489859 I don't think XL and SR and really different. I'm not really sure why they have both. I take 150 of XL and it makes me feel more energetic. Maybe consider what time of day you take it, If you take it with food or not, etc. Let your doc know even if it goes away.
Avatar f tn My blood pressure runs around 91/60 and my pulse rate at 50 is this to low is this why I might feel sluggish and tired with no energy. I take medicine for tachycardia 50 mg p/day of toprol xl.
2211548 tn?1659383531 Effexor Xr is like a low low grade tab of MDMA...there are so many similarities. 1.)you get that lovey dovey feeling and for myself personally really fall for sensations of fabrics. like for myself..i have this silk, polyester kimono that is ohhh so soft, and i woke up in the middle of the night wanting to go grab it just to cuddle with it. but i didnt, cuz i would have to go searching for it blindly in the dark.
