Has anyone experienced very deep dark nightmares whenever they have missed a dosage of Strattera with Wellbutrin?

Actually, that sounds probable. My highly intelligent, extremely depressed (just above the suicide line), musically articulate, high school BF John J. had to get off Prozac because of the HORRIBLE night terrors. He was on another antidepressant after that for 4 or so months and he would tell me about the OCCASIONAL creepy, psychological horror dream that he remembered. They were always extremely vivid and there was even attention to detail. He must have been traumatized by them. they weren't very frequent- but they didn't have to be. They stuck with him. I wish I knew everything he was on. I'm pretty sure it was just an A.D. though. I knew him b/w the ages of 16-18.

Is there a place to donate unused prescr medication?

Unfortuntely, not really. The problem is that once the medication has left the pharmacy, official control of its potency and purity is no longer present and cannot be guaranteed. Unused prescription drugs should be disposed of in accordance with labelling. Disposal approach will vary with the drug, so do read the labelling, or ask your pharmacist. The answer is different if you are a pharmacy, health care provider, hospital, or drug distributor. In these cases, you can donate your drugs to a number of health aid organizations. A place to start would be an internet search for "doctors without borders".

What signs and symptoms of depression will Wellbutrin XL attack or work on?

Wellbutrin is helpful for feelings of sadness and/or hopelessness that keep an individual from functioning as well as they believe is normal for them. It also helps to diminish cravings for nicotine. It has less of a negative effect on libido (sex drive) than other medications of this kind. Basically, this type of mood stabilizer will make a depressed person better able to accomplish daily tasks. They may feel more energetic, less withdrawn and less obsessed with negative thoughts. That said, specific medications don't work for everyone and some people will react differently than others. In finding the right mood-stabilizer it is important to start at the lowest possible dose. Starting what might be too high a dose for you can make you feel anxious and restless. It is always good to take Wellbutrin in the morning because it might interfere with falling asleep. Build up slowly to a dosage that makes you feel like you did before depression hit. If the initial dose is too high you may think it is the wrong medication for you when actually, it could have worked very well if you built up slowly. A lot of doctors are not fully aware of this.

I just came off wellbutrin and lexapro cold turkey and I'm finding myseld constantly angry is this a side effect of the withdrawal?

I can't say I about Wellbutrin, but as for the Lexapro which I too am coming off, I am extremely emotional and very quick to anger. I can't even stand myself. There is no build up. Someone does something minor and I'm instantly pissed and yelling. I also am experiencing headaches, horrible brain zaps and dizziness as well as fatigue.

I weaned myself to 5mg a day then quit. It has been four days of hell. I hope this ends soon. I feel sorry for the people that have to deal with me.

My son is on Wellbutrin-xl 300mg tabs once a day. He is out and didn't plan well he has some Wellbutrin-xl 150 tabs at home and i was wondering if he could take 2 of the 150mg to make 300 mg.?

That should be fine. I have combined two lower dosage pills to make a higher dose many times myself and was told by my doctor that it was perfectly safe.

To be on the safe side you could call the pharmacy number on the bottle and confirm with the pharmacist on duty. Or in my case, the pharmacy was no help, and instead I had to get in touch with my doctor instead. :/

Remember, when taking Wellbutrin XL (not Wellbutrin SR, don't confuse the two):

1) Take WELLBUTRIN XL at the sametime each day. (not 8 or 12 hours apart).

2) Take your doses of WELLBUTRIN XL at least 24 hours apart.

3) If you miss a dose, simply wait until your usual dosing time to take it, try not to adjust your dose times without consulting your doctor first.

Help you are itching from wellbutrin XL you stopped taking it 10 days ago and you are still itching how long before it leaves your system entirely?

My husband stopped WB XL about 2 months ago and the itching still has not ceased. I don't have any solutions but I am looking. Answer: When I started taking it I got a rash all over. I put some antihistamine cream like benadryl on the red patches were itching the worst and waited it out. The cream really helped, the patches where still red for over a week but eventually went away. It was an initial reaction to the Wellbutrin and every so often i still get a rash here and there but a treatable rash is better than being horribly depressed so I'm still taking Wellbutrin. Just don't scratch, that usually starts the rash or really makes a small itchy red patch become a huge one.

Can Zyban help codeine withdrawal?

Codeine should be tapered off correctly before taking zyban. Zyban will not help codeine withdrawal, furthermore it may exasberate symptoms such as palpitations, cold sweats and difficulty breathing.
