I had side effects , i started putting on weight, and did not get a permenant cure but i got this blog which really helped me to cure the panic attack http://trainyourmind.blogspot.com

-------------------- I have been on lexapro 20mg and wellbutrin 150mg for about 6 months for depression and anxiety. Mixing these two has helped me with both mood and lack of attention/energy in my case. My impression is that Lexapro works pretty well with mood and anxiety, and wellbutrin helps attention, energy, sex drive, and concentration. So there are other symptoms like fatigue and lack of motivation left, but we know that anti-depressants don't attack all depressive symptoms.

Can Lexapro and Wellbutrin be taken for panic attacks?

Yes, Lexapro (escitalopram) and Wellbutrin (bupropion) can be prescribed for managing panic attacks, but they work differently.

Combining these medications should only be done under the supervision of a healthcare provider, as individual responses can vary. Always consult with a doctor before starting or changing any medication regimen.
