How long did it take for bupropion sr to start working? I started taking wellbutrin sr (bupropion sr) to heighten my sex drive. How long does it take for it to start working? How long does it take for the side affects to wear off (agitation, nausea...etc)?

bloominwhereimplanted replied: "I discontinued taking it for the exact reason. It killed my sex drive."

nimo22 replied: "Most anti-depressants actually decrease your sex drive, so I'm surprised you would take one to increase it. But then well-butrin is different than other anti-depressants so I guess it's possible it can have the opposite affect. You should start feeling a difference after 2 or 3 weeks, although it could be up to 6 weeks. Good Luck."

RxGirl704 replied: "Unfortunately side effects of antidepressants arive faster (in 1 week or less) than the beneficial effect - which can take 4-6 weeks. Try to wait it out. :) The side effects will sometimes wear off when you adjust to the medication at this time."

just me replied: "The only way i think it could heighten your sex drive is if it helped your depression..........but as a norm it deminishes sex drive. as for working for depression it is said that it takes approxamately 6-8 weeks, for full effect. side effects will usually wear off, but if they persist for a long period of time talk to your doc."

josom1219 replied: "If the effects havent worn off within 2 weeks, I would talk to my doctor about taking something else. The Dr. will probably tell you to wait a month, but if they are really bothering you, then you should start looking into weening off of them and starting something new."

Is it alright to take Guaifenesin while taking Bupropion? I take a generic of Wellbutrin SR and the pharmacist reccommended a chest decongestiant. Should I be worried about their compatibility?

Ellen M replied: "probably you will be fine. I have taken Guaifenesin before, it is not that potent."

dremadagwa replied: "no problem at all sure"

Would it be safe to take fluoxetine or bupropion (antidepressants) if I am under 18? I am 15 years old. How much would be safe for me to take or would it be safe? I am a female.

J G replied: "Anti depressants are known to have a higher risk of causing suicidal ideation in teens. It is a potential side effect. I would not be quick to jump on a antidepressant, but i know with how i was when i was a younger, i wish i had been on one younger. You and your parents would just have to watch very closely for it making your depression worse or causing suicidal thoughts."

Cheryl replied: "This question is probably best answered by your doctor. There are a lot of medications that are prescribed to people under the age of 18, but they haven't been studied over the long term."

Susas replied: "It would be about as safe as if you were an adult. A doctor would know how much you should take. Taking antidepressants now may prevent worse situations later."

Can I take Vitamins,Antioxidants, calcium, and fishoil with Wellbutrin(bupropion)? I take MultiVitamins, Fish Oil, GreenTea Extract pill, Pomagranet Extract Pills, and Calcium Pills. Can I take those while I'm on Wellbutrin(bupropion)? Thanks for the Help:)

Leah F replied: "I don't know whether or not you may take those supplements while on Wellbutrin, but I do know that a good person to ask is a pharmacist. Give a call to the pharmacy you use, and ask to speak with the pharmacist. I've called Walgreens many times, and they have always been very helpful!"

gorgeousgab replied: "yes. None of these will interfere with the absorption of Wellbutrin. Theyre all absorbed very differently and used differently by the body they will not interact."

Are there any adults on here today, that take Bupropion Sr 150mg ?? if your suppose to take 2 pills per day, would it hurt to take both at the same time ??

Kat replied: "well not necessarily hurt but, i take 300 mgs of bupropion xl which is the extended release form. if your doctor has prescribed to take 150 mgs twice daily you should follow drs order. you could ask him to switch you to the extended release that way you only have to remember to take it once a day. best of luck."

breezy b replied: "you should take them as prescribed by your dr. wellbutrin sr can cause sleep interruption, so you should take it in the a.m., but i take mine 1 in the a.m., & 1 before bed. but i have adjusted to that. 12 hours apart is probably optimal. taking them both at the same time is probably not good. in some individuals there have been incidence of seizures. i don't know what causes that; if it is too high of a dose, or the wrong medication, or a pre-existing condition, etc. before you go changing your medication, talk to the person who prescribes them; they know best."
