Wellbutrin's half-life

Posted by sisyphus on August 22, 2003, at 8:15:56

Hi,

Could anybody advice me what is the half-life of Wellbutrin? I want to have a try on it. Should I try to take a pill of 150mg of it every other day? Or cut the pill by half? (I couldn't find 75mg in my area.)

Thanks.

Half-life is 21 hours.

They don't make 75 mg tablets, but you can cut a 150 in half. It seems odd that your Doc would tell you to take 75 mg since they don't make it.

But I heard that the damage of the protective coating of WB will lessen its effectiveness. Any advice?

Yes. I mean 100mg, not 75mg.
