In reply to Watch out for Wellbutrin drug interactions? (2d6), posted by JohnX2 on June 22, 2002, at 17:02:07
Thanks for posting this. I was originally taking prozac for depression and it worked OK. I really didn't have bad side effects other than some weight gain. At one point my doc added wellbutrin because of the weight gain. Initially things were fine and then all of a sudden I got hit with this debilitating fatigue, muscle pain, joint pain like arthritis and a return of my depression. I told my doc that I thought it was the prozac. He had a hard time believing it because I was only on 10 mg/day. I quit the prozac and these all went away. I was convinced (after doing some reading of my own about drug interactions-especially snce prozac has the same reputation) that it was due to an interaction between these two drugs. I am currently now taking dexedrine along with the wellbutrin and I'm getting nervous after reading this post.
