In reply to Wellbutrin Side Effects...help!, posted by Carolyn on February 26, 2000, at 6:48:09
Carolyn - I had the same experiences as you with starting Wellbutrin. I was also told to increase after 3 days (from 150mg to 300mg). I couldn't do it; I was too wired. I stayed on 150mg for a week and the jitteriness and restlessness did abate. Then I moved up to 150mg twice daily with no problem. Also, I did have trouble sleeping and now I wouldn't take Wellbutrin after 4:00pm. Keep in mind that with the long acting Wellbutrin SR, doses should be at least 8 hours apart (6-7 hour intervals were never a problem - for me). Hang in there another week, maybe lower the dose, if necessary (tell your doc). Good luck - Cam W.
