In reply to wellbutrin and weight/dose, posted by delna on December 26, 2003, at 23:18:12
hi there! i wouldn't get your hopes up about weight loss from wellbutrin, it may help you lose up to 10 lbs initially but i think it all comes back. what happens (i think) is that it causes nauseasness, so you don't feel like eating, but like many other side effects it goes away. what about suggesting one of the stimulant drugs- ritilin, dexedrine....
