Wellbutrin is contraindicated for bulimia » newstart

Wellbutrin shouldn't even be a consideration in someone with a history of bulimia. The risk is pretty high, for seizure, even if you're not actively purging.

A better solution would be to try another SSRI and add Topomax. Topomax is being used both to counter weight gain from SSRIs, and as a drug to reduce purging behavior. Both of which could be helpful in your situation.

Good luck.
