Increased appetite with increase in Wellbutrin?

Posted by alchemy on July 23, 2009, at 18:46:03

Wellbutrin did have the semi-stimulant effects for me, and then I increased it from 300 to 450. My appetite became uncomfortably high, especially for carbs. And no help to my depression. Any ideas or experiences with this crazy response?

Hi alchemy,

I notice you wrote 'did' have stimulating effects. How has that been since you increased the dose? My experience was the higher the dose, (I was on 450 as well), the more, not really sedated, but spaced and agitated. And I could fall asleep on it. I can't comment on the carb craving because I was increasing another med (abilify) that I thought was the culprit in my increased desire for carbs--however, when I'm tired and spaced, I usually reach for carbs and sugar.
