Re: What's the maximum dose of Wellbutrin?

Max dose is normally thought of as 450mgs. I think some doc are using XL version and augmenting with the standard version (not extended release). Also, the studies on the seizure potential of this med were done at doses higher than 450mgs and seizures seemed to occur in individuals with a comorbid bulemia. The med never really shook this distinction and the fine points of the study results got lost in the fear. Talk with your doc and I hope you work it out.

I'm doing 150mg of XL and was ready to ditch it when it seems to be helping and SE abating somewhat, so I'll give it a bit more time. I researched the h*ll out of it before I went on it and what I said above was the "clif" notes of my research.
Good Luck.
