In reply to wellbutrin to quit smoking, posted by vanessa33 on November 14, 2003, at 15:06:05
Added comment: I haven't had a chance to ask my psych. doctor about this yet, cause I only seem him once in a while. This was just a medical exam in which the doctor, after learning I smoke, decided I should go on welbutrin. When I told him I'm already on Zoloft and have a history etc...he was unconcerned. Just wanted me to quit smoking.
Don't know what my psych doctor will say. In the past, he's said that as a medical doctor, he advises me to quit because of lung cancer etc. But as a pyschiatrist, he says, he has no opinion about tobacco and prefers to stay out of it. Says smoking is "complicated" from a psychiatric standpoint and best left up to the patient.
Not sure what to do! The medical doctor was adhement.
