In reply to Wellbutrin, posted by sarahsundae on November 17, 2003, at 13:14:23
I believe it says quite clearly on the prescribing information that Wellbutrin should not be given to someone with an eating disorder. I am quite surprised your pdoc didn't pay attention to that. Perhaps you should try a different AD.
All the best,

> I have been taking Wellbutrin for a short time now. When I started, I believe I lost a little weight. But since uppping the dosage to 200mg I believe I am starting to gain weight. Is this possible? I haven't seen too many people who have gained so maybe it's just me? I am scared out of my mind right now. I have an eating disorder and gained 20 pounds back on Effexor. Since I stopped the Effexor I lost 10 pounds but now I am afraid I'm going to gain even more. I need the help for my depression, but gaining weight is just not an option for me.
