In reply to Wellbutrin + Zoloft weight loss, posted by annelyse on March 26, 2009, at 11:45:42
Wellbutrin caused me to loose weight very fast as well, but since I'm already fairly small it was not a good thing. I lost about 12lbs in 2 weeks, which took me to an "underweight" IBM. And although I was more awake (the reason for taking WB) I had no energy for anything. It made me feel faint and dizzy along with a whole host of other side effects. Not only was it really difficult to eat, but my metabolism seems to be going into overdrive, which I deduced from the high heart rate and periods of extreme hot flashes and sweats. So be careful because it works!
I'm not sure if it's common, but keep your eye (ear?) out for tinnitus. WB gave me REALLY bad tinnitus and even though I was only on it for 2-3 weeks at the longest, the tinnitus lasted for months after I stopped.
