> Hate to tell you that, since I'm barely past my clubbin' days, but I wouldn't drink on the Risperdal nor the Wellbutrin. The Wellbutrin 'specially, since alcohol can reduce the seizure threshold, which is a danger with Wellbutrin.
This is true, though 150 is barely a clinical dose for some. This holds more when one gets to 300 or 400. As a general thing, I would actually take a small dose of klonopin with Wellbutrin regardless, to prevent this from happening. I did anyway, I couldn't take the Wellbutrin alone, it was too stimulating.
The sustained release tablets prevent this from occuring more than the previous immediate release and are one of the few patent extenders I find medically valuable.

If you're going to try it, have a glass of wine with dinner in a quiet place with a quiet friend, first.They're usually on substances, but it can rarely happen. People with seizure disorders shouldn't expose themselves to strobe lights, especially without very dark sunglasses.
I'm not prone to seizures but I know how annoying strobe lights can be, having a somatiform disorder. I used to have to wear dark sunglasses comment.
