Hello All,
I recently started Wellbrutin and the first day it made me feel a little nervous. I also take Effexor.
However, the area under my breast down to my navel has
blow up and I feel like I'm ready to bust, literally.
I look pregnant and my skin is very tight.I've even changed the time I take these medicines to make sure one doesn't interfare with the other.
I wonder if this is a side effect, but I read the literature and did not find this as a common or infrequent side effect.
Any one experience this. I want to give this medicine a chance.
Sassy

Geez, that doesn't sound good. Does it subside after a while, or is the bloating constant? Have you told your doctor?

Sassy, this sounds like something you better get checked out ASAP. I've been on the top dose of Wellbutrin(400mgs.per day) for over 12 weeks, and had nothing even remotely similar to the effect you are having. Of course, we all know that meds. effect each of us in different ways, but I would have to wonder if the bloating might be something seperate from the meds. you are on. Best wishes, keep us posted.CarolAnn
