Hate to disagree but my experiences have been different. Maybe it depends on your ability to dose yourself on a prescribed schedule. I had been on WB for a year when i was switched to the sr formula. felt like a beehive in my brain. I freaked. Felt like speed. Judging by the other posters here, i would guess that everyone reacts differently in metabolizing the drug.
Maybe my body forgets it should use up the drug over 10 hours and just gobbles up that buproprion and puts it too work immediately. In short I cant take the sr because it is too uneven while other posters think the SR is the most smooth way. You may have to try it too be sure.

> Remember that WellbutrinSR is the "same" medication as Wellbutrin tablets, the only difference being the base of delivery included with the med. I've taken WellbutrinSR for a couple of years now and it's just a smooother delivery of the med over the course of 5 to 7 hours. This helps with concerns over seizure potential and with overall side effect profile.
