In reply to Budeprion (Generic) vs. Wellbutrin, posted by Daniel2000 on September 30, 2004, at 7:41:28
Just to add fuel to the fire, my pdoc believes there are definite differences between Wellbutrin and the generics. She put me on 75 mg generic bupropion for two reasons: 1) we are starting out and there is no 75mg version of Wellbutrin and 2) I am using bupe as an adjunct to a reduced dose of effexor.
Her thought was that, money aside, if your sole AD is bupe, that's a good reason to opt for Wellbutrin and if you are using a sustained release version, she feels that Wellbutrin is also a superior choice.
I suspect I might end up on 150mg of Wellbutrin XL. I sure as hell will avoid the budeprion.
