In reply to Atypical Wellbutrin dosages (250/350/ )450): share, posted by dragonblack on September 28, 2011, at 17:26:12
YES i do. I have been on as much as 1000mg of Bupropion SR, and 900mg of wellbutrin XL. *However* i increased slowly and I was ON A MOOD STABILIZER ANTIEPILEPTIC becuase those high doses are associated with higher seizure risk. However, the original bupropion studies and inpatient usage was over 1000....only reason why people say max is 450mg right now is seizure risk.
It's worth a shot. I ended up going back down to 600mg where I'm at right now. I've been on better meds, but I've def. been on worse. I am still strugglign with anhedonia and apathy and amotivation but I am not suicidal and I am getting around and not in bed and in pain all day. So taht's something for ya.
And i'm BP2, bupropion supposedly has less risk for manic switch than SNRIs or SSRIs.
