> Wellbutrin must do something to serotonin because they won't let me take it with my MAOI due to serotonin syndrome. It isn't supposed to have the sexual, weight gain, or other side effects of SSRIs. I know some people on this board got agitated when they took it, but I did really well on it as long as I stuck with the brand name XL formulation.
They are wrong,i was just reading in depth on wellbutrin for a friend today,and its method of action are due to its affect on ne/dopamine.It does not have strong or to my reading any impact on serotonin.
Also in a famous study of parnate augmentation thats often posted here,wellbutrin addition to parnate was infact one strategy.
I have tried it with no ill effect,and that should be an option for you.
However hearing that a doc wont agree with you to do this even disregarding the misinfo why is to no surprise,you will find unless you have a open doc,you can expect little help with a doc allowing additions to parnate.
In the article which is easly found,parnate augments included
Parnate + Nortriplyine
Parnate + low dose ritalin
Parnate + Wellbutrin
Parnate + high dose treatment
