>I have no experience Sheila, but how about treating the gas/stomach thing with an OTC product. I know it's a sucky idea to treat side effects with other drugs but what can one do?
Wellbutrin for the sex drive? Maybe...
I hope these side effects do go away with time but if not try and manage them with something because it's rare to find a drug that actually works.
