Does Wellbutrin cause seizures?

I certainly can. People with seizure histories should not take it. Everyone should start with a small dose & build up slowly to be sure Welbutrin does not cause seizures in you. It works great for me -- but you are not me.


Are there permanent effects from seizures?

Not normally. If someone has very severe and very regular seizures they could do some damage, but they are a very small minority of people with epilepsy. Some people's seizures are caused because a problem already exists, like a brain injury or a tumour, but the epilepsy would not be the cause of them and would not make them any worse.

Do all seizures have convulsions?

No. Seizures can be 'grand mal' which involve the tonic-clonic muscle movement you describe as convulsions. 'Petit mal' seizures can be absence seizures, most often seen in children, where the patient seems catatonic for a brief period. Partial seizures can involve only one small body area, and some seizures consist of just a recurrent tic which can evolve into a larger seizure. Even a hiccup is believed to be a type of mild seizure.

What are the symtoms of epilepsy?

Epilepsy is diagnosed by a person having seizures. For some people the seizures are frequent and strong. Someone having a milder form will not get seizures very often. The seizures they get will be very mild, maybe manifesting themselves as short periods of loss of conciousness, or even just feeling a little "strange" (hard to really describe this as it is different for different people) for a moment and then feeling fine. They may feel like a seizure is coming on, but it never actually happens. Most seizures are preceded by something as a person feels it coming on. This is normally called an aura, which is different for different people, the strange feeling I mentioned. It could be a physical sensation. The seizure will then follow. Someone with a mild form may get an aura, but not have a full seizure at all. some of the other side symptoms are that the person see double of evrything and sometime walks like they are drunk
