> Been on Prozac, brand and generics for basically 18 years, generics are not as good as the brand. I have never felt the same good effects from generics, only more side effects like lethargy and weakness, dullness. The only generic I suppose I did well on was Dista, which until reading these posts, I did not realize was a generic. I though it was the brand Prozac. But this was 15 years ago, now I can't even get Dista. I am taking Sandoz brand currently, but not thrilled with it. I might actually consider trying to get the brand again. Generics are not equivalent in my opinion. By the way, I also take bupropion and had to insist on the brand as well. The generic is like a whole different medication. How do they get away with that?

Have you tried Aplenzin? It appears to be made using the same technology as Wellbutrin XL. And it's backed up by a tier 1 drug company, Sanofi Aventis. (Although it says on the bottle that it's manufactured by a third party.)

I have a supply of 348mg Aplenzins, but I stopped taking that much bupropion due to insomnia. So now I am taking a 150mg Budeprion (Teva).
