When does the Wellbutrin sedation end?

Posted by Colleen D. on March 16, 2005, at 7:15:31

This is day five at 150mg. Tomorrow I will start taking 300mg. I have two cups of coffee in the morning and one pepsi mid-day. Yesterday on the way to work at 10 a.m., I thought I might fall asleep behind the wheel so I drank my pepsi then. Will the 300mg be more activating? I also take 60mg Cymbalta and 1mg Klonopin daily.

Thanks!

Hmmm. I haven't heard of too many people feeling sedated w/ WB. It actually made me so wired and anxious that I couldn't take it. Maybe it is making one of your other meds stronger. You might want to call your doc and see if s/he wants you to back off a little of the Klonipin or Cymbalta.

I can't remember how long I took it before I noticed the tired feeling going away, but it did get better.

The first 2 times I tried WB it was too activating.The 3rd time with mood stabllizers,the sedation never went away. Now, I am sedated on cymbalta,but it's early yet. Funny, strattera activated me(but pooped out).
Go figure.
Good luck,
Lois
