No, it is not recommended. Wellbutrin (bupropion) and Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine) are dangerous if taken together because this combination has been known to cause seizures (which can be fatal if not controlled).

Is 75 mg of Wellbutrin Low?

As a daily dose, yes. The normal dose would be between 150mg and 300mg. 300mg is significantly more effective than 150mg. The maximum recommended dose is 450mg, because seizure risk increases significantly at 600mg.

A standard release pill is usually 75mg, but you would take 2 to 4 a day. The extended release pills are bigger, but that's because you can only take 1 or 2 a day because they take longer to absorb.

Can it be dangerous to suddenly completely stop taking Wellbutrin?

Wellbutrin, like many anti-depressants of its type, has a cumulative effect, which is why your doctor probably told you it would take up to 6-8 weeks before you would begin to feel the effects. The body essentially builds up a store of it.

If you abruptly quit taking it, your body will gradually secrete it until there is no more left in your system. So, no, sudden cessation should cause no harm at all.

Personal note: I have taken this (prescribed) drug. When I told my doctor I no longer wished to, he said something to the effect of "okay," and I just stopped taking it. No ill effects.

How long do hives last after discontinuing Zyban?

Hives are caused by an allergic reaction and as much as Zyban companies will have one believe, there are some terrible side effects taking this med. I had a friend who took it and his face was so swollen it cracked (as did his lips). The doctors at ER said it wasn't Zyban, but in truth it was. Go and see your doctor and if you don't have one then go to a clinic ASAP. You will be given a antihistamine. Don't self medicate yourself, but see your doctor! Good luck Hope you are feeling better soon Marcy

What side effects can happen when stopping zoloft and starting Wellbutrin?

Withdrawal Symptoms

The question needs some clarification. Each of these are drugs to treat depression. Each can be taken separately. Frequently wellbutrin is added to regimens of Zoloft to try to provide energy or correct sexual problems.

Wellbutrin has a series of potential withdrawal symptoms. It is best to try to taper from a high dose down to a low dose... 300mg, to 150mg, to 100mg to 75mg. Others report that they can stop wellbutrin immediately with no withdrawal. Best to work with your doctor.

Zoloft has a very well documented withdrawal syndrome, with electrical or zappy feelings as one of the events. The original poster of this answer below did not indicate which medication they were withdrawing from or which dosages. The important information is that they recommend a taper down. Zoloft can be tapered very slowly into very small doses. Wellbutrin can be taken in small doses ( a 75 mg can be cut in two). The higher formulations of Wellbutrin can not be cut. Before cutting a pill of anysort both your doctor and a pharmacist should be consulted.

I had major withdrawel symptoms - nausea, vomiting and shakes for 10 days. I HIGHLY recommend "stepping" off these drugs and not stopping cold turkey.

Been on it for 4 months, I went from 450 mg to nothing (hair loss issue) it's been 7 days now, no withdrawal(s) whatsoever it's business as usual, go figure.

Side effects from Wellbutrin?

Stop Zoloft start lexapro how many days?

First, you can't just stop taking Zoloft--if you've taken it for more than a month or so, you'll have to slowly decrease your dose until it is 10mg or so and then stop (this should take several weeks.) Then you're ready to start Lexapro (no cool off period in between is necessary.) Note: I am not a physician but I know that if your doctor recommended changing from Zoloft to Lexapro s/he would have already gone over this--be careful--Zoloft has a profound effect on your brain chemistry, make sure your doctor is in agreement on this. Note: I've taken Zoloft (Sertraline) and Wellbutrin in different strengths for over 6 years, these are serious drugs.

Prozac works on serotonin and Theanine works on gaba which in turn seem toraise dopamine levels so both of them are working on entirely different neurotransmitters so there should be no drug reactions, but an advice with a professional health specialist will be the best thing.

What are the side effects if you drink alcohol while taking 40Mg of Adderall XR daily?

Mixing Adderall with Alcohol:
  • One drink won't hurt, but if you are out drinking with friends or drink every day the two simply don't mix. The alcohol can enhance or take away the effects of the drug.
  • I recently started my prescription for adderall. I take 20 mg xr and I didn't even think about it this evening when we went to a local brew pub party. I'm not much of a drinker, but I did have probably 3-4 glasses, which is more than enough for me, and I experienced no ill side effects. I don't think I am "more alert" than I would have been without taking the adderall, but I am very irritable. I'm usually a "happy" drinker, but when I got home and tried to call my husband at the party, when he didn't answer I became very angry (not normal) and I was hostile. I'm sure that everyone reacts different, and perhaps that wouldn't happen to someone else, but that was a weird enough experience for me to look this up and see what other people say. As for mixing the two, I don't think I would be afraid to do it again, but I might remember that I get angry instead of happy and try to control that.
  • Personally I find that drinking alcohol while taking stimulants isn't a pleasant experience. Instead of feeling happy and fun instead I feel tired, heavy, and slow. I can tell when the alcohol wears off (after drinking only one or two drinks) because I suddenly feel much better. They don't go well together as one is a depressant and the other a stimulant. It's like your brain is a rubber band and being pulled in both directions.
