In reply to effexor/wellbutrin combo, posted by meds4life on May 28, 2004, at 22:28:23
That's the combination I'm on. At first we tried effexor xr and buspar, but I had non-stop headaches with it. So we switched to wellbutrin xl, and my appetite has been depressed. On buspar and effexor I felt like my body lost the "you can stop eating now, I'm full" button. Presently I'm at 150mg effexor xr and 300mg wellbutrin xl. Also take xanax for panic attacks and sometimes ambien for sleep.
I have lost 11 of the 35 lbs I gained since I started being treated for depression (tried celexa, paxil, zyprexa). I have to say I'm eating much less - I don't seem to get snack attacks anymore.
