I'm taking 300 mg Wellbutrin, 54 mg Concerta

I'm not really sure. I started the Wellbutrin about three weeks before the Concerta, so I think it was probably just kicking in when I added the Concerta. I've never taken the Concerta without the Wellbutrin.

> In other words, dose the wellbutrin lower the dose of concerta you need for a positive response?

I think it should, though I really don't know.


> I was thinking about asking my pdoc about the possibility of adding concerta to wellbutrin... and wondering if there's a synergistic (not sure if that's a word...) effect?

I think there probably is; it would make sense. Since I have never taken either one separately, I am just guessing.

I wish I could be more helpful. I've always taken both together, so I really don't have much of an idea how they would work separately.
