Whoa..
I was on Wellbutrin 450mg XL daily about a year ago. Bupropion (wellbutrin) inhibits noradrenaline and dopamine, i do not belive it has any effect of serotonin. Its know as a dopamine reuptake inhibitor. Its not an SSRI's like Prozac or Zoloft, and Lexapro, which increase serotonin. Wellbutrin increases slightly dopamine and norephinephrine (noradreanline) in the nerve synapse.
That site i dont think is accurate.
There are numerous sites that specifly say Wellbutrin effects dopamine and norephineprine.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopamine_reuptake_inhibitors
Go on Google and Type in Wellbutrin and dopamine.
It doesnt effect serotonin at all.
The supplement your taking may agitate you with Wellbutrin, i used to feel spaced out on it. Alert, but i could not take naps at all.
Best luck to you Lakeman.
