> I had some of the red Wellbutrins (I think 75 mg) as well as the 100 mg tablets...all mixed up in the same bottle. Now that made for some colorful mornings. I could shake them up really fast and make orange (heh heh)...Well, whether you prefer Wellbutrin SR or IR, the REAL scam or real CRIME is the fact that there isn't enough research going on into other noradrenergic/dopaminergic antidepressants. Wellbutrin is the only medicine of its kind (other than amphetamines, which don't do much for depression) currently available in this country. The manufacturers and purveyors of the WIMPOGENIC ssri's have effectively prevented research and/or FDA approval of much better, more creative and useful antidepressants for a great majority of patients. Instead, we are turning into a country of spaced-out, apathetic, ssri-ingesting wimps.
