Vesta (Reboxetine) and Welbutrin (bupropion)

Posted by Shame on February 23, 2005, at 7:02:08


Anyone taking these two meds in conjunction? I'm hoping to replace my Prozac with Vestra soon, but I think the Wellbutrin is doing me a lot of good so I dont want to drop it. Since the drug companies are dragging their feet with Reboxetine... Well I might go elsewhere to get it.

If I remember correctly, Reboxetine affects norepinephine (NE). Is that true? If so, you might try replacing the Prozac with Duloxetine (cymbalta) since Duloxetine affects both serotonin and NE.

Reboxetine effects noradrenaline I belive.

I never understood the difference between norepinephrine and noradrenaline, but I think I read once that they are used interchangably.

Hi!

They are exactly the same thing. Noradrenaline is English, norepinephrine is American.
