In reply to Budeprion (Generic) vs. Wellbutrin, posted by Daniel2000 on September 30, 2004, at 7:41:28
> I have yet to see a thread on this site talking about weather or not the new generic form of wellbutrin sr , called budeprion sr, is found to be as good. Most people and most pharmacists argue tht all genrics undergo testing to prove they are the same, that they have the same bioavailability in the body and everything,and that any differences would be purely a kind of reverse placebo effect, but I was interested to see if anyone else has found a difference between the two. I have only tried budeprion sr 150 mg and it has seemed to have some side effects which seem inconcistent with what many users of brand name wellbutrin sr claim to experience; mainly being a worse experience of side effects from it. Anyways, I would appreciate some feedback from anyone who has tried both,tried budeprion, and who tried wellbutrin sr to see if we can get anywhere with this. Mainly I want to see if it is worth it to tell my doctor weather I should try brand name wellbutrin this time or not.
I HAVE TAKEN, WELBUTRIN SR, BUROPRION AND BUDEPRION. WHEN SWITCHING FROM WELBUTRIN SR TO BUPROPRION I NOTICED NO DIFFERENCE. RECENTLY HOWEVER, MY PHARMACY SWITCHED ME TO THE BUDEPRION AND I HAVE NOTICED A MARKED INCREASE IN THE SEVERITY OF EXISTING SIDE EFFECTS AS WELL AS SOME NEW ONES I NEVER HAD BEFORE (HEADACHES & NAUSEA). I HAVE CONTACTED MY PHYSICIAN AND AM AWAITING A RESPONSE. IF YOU ARE HAVING A SIMILAR EXPERIENCE WITH THIS DRUG I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND YOU SPEAK WITH YOUR DOCTOR. WE TAKE THESE DRUGS TO RELIEVE SYMPTOMS, NOT ACQUIRE THEM. THERE IS NO POINT IN TAKING SOMETHING THAT MAKE ONE FEEL WORSE.
