I looked on the net for Wellbutrin info and found 1) drug interactions, and 2) side-effects to call your doctor about immediately.
The link is at the bottom of this message.
tell your doctor and Wellbutrin pharmacist what other prescription and nonprescription drugs you are taking, or have taken in the last 2 weeks, especially anticoagulants [warfarin (Coumadin)]; antihistamines; antipsychotics; carbamazepine (Tegretol); cimetidine (Tagamet); diet pills; insulin; levodopa (Sinemet, Larodopa); lithium (Eskalith, Lithobid); MAO inhibitors [phenelzine (Nardil), tranylcypromine (Parnate)]; medication for high blood pressure, seizures, asthma, colds, or allergies; methylphenidate (Ritalin); oral antidiabetic medications; other antidepressants; ritonavir (Norvir); sedatives; sleeping pills; theophylline (Theobid, Theo-Dur, others), thyroid medications; tranquilizers; and vitamins. You should not take Wellbutrin or Wellbutrin SR and Zyban together. Also tell your doctor if you drink large amounts of alcohol or are addicted to cocaine, opiates or other drugs so that you can properly taper and end their use. Abrupt withdrawal increases seizure risk.
If you experience any of the following Wellbutrin symptoms, call your doctor immediately:seizures or tremors
loss of coordination
fever
severe skin rash
itching
hives
chest pain
shortness of breath
muscle or joint pain
yellowing of the skin or eyes
irregular heartbeatwww.wellbutrin-side-effects.net/
