Wellbutrin, Lexapro Headache, Help!

Posted by peppermint on October 27, 2003, at 21:57:30

After being on Celexa 10mg successfully for one month(it stabilized my emotions), I have been switched to Lexapro 10mg. Due to the negative libido side effect, the DR has added Wellbutrin 125mg to help boost my libido. I have been on the Lexapro/Wellbutrin combo for one week. The last 3 days I have had killer headaches. Is it the Lexapro or Wellbutrin? Will the headaches pass or will the continue as long as I'm on this medicinal combinatioN? Help if you can.

I'm on Lex 20mg, have never taken WB. The first week (started at 5mg) I had terrible migrane headaches, the kind that hurt so much they make you nauseous. But they didn't last, I took OTC pain relievers, and they were gone by end of second week. It might be just the Lex???

Best of luck!~~~8|8

i started on 10mg of lexapro and this is the third week, and the headaches started. not too bad, but a constant ache in my entire head all day long. seemed to subside in the am, then begins all over in the afternoon - maybe has something to do when you take the lexapro...i take mine in the am.
good luck
