Wellbutrin Sr Mylan

I have read all the problems people are having with the generic versions of the Wellbutrin XL but I have had similar problems with the change in generics for Wellbutrin SR. I originally took 300 to 400 mgs of Wellbutrin SR manufactured by Watson. I have had several changes but did okay on the Wellbutrin by Watson and Sandoz. I went into a deep depression when I was switched to the Mylan but my insurance at first denied a different brand. Now they will switch to another generic with a special process. Has anyone experienced any side effects or improvement with the generic by Activis?

Hello,

Sorry to hear about your problems switching between all those manufacturers.

It is however important to know that everyone reacts differently to these types of medications.

So while one generic may work fine for someone else, odds are another patient's experience may not be anything like yours, even under the influence of the same medication. Comparing their effects does seem like a gamble in that regard.

You can learn more about this drug on the page for Wellbutrin Details

Have you tried any other anti-depressants as well?

Yes, I have tried almost all antidepressants and Wellbutrin has been the only one with promise. I've tried several since the generics came about. I seem to have more sensitivities to the release agents in many of them. I have one more to try but if I have no success I will attempt one of the generics that worked best. I am so tired of trying new meds. I seem to have side effects with all but the Wellbutrin actually gave me hope of conquering this depression and anxiety.

Wellbutrin linked with heart palpitations?? Please anyone that has any knowledge on this side effect please contact me. I have been on Wellbutrin XL 150 once a day and the heart palpitations started and only seemed to be getting worse. I've recently switched to SR100mg and they're even more frequent. This is the only med that's leveled my depression and self loathing. I need this drug.

I have been taking wellbutrin xl 150 mgs per day. I have experienced serious heart palpitations,
Heart fluttering, racing and pounding. Sometimes it is difficult to breathe. I really don't think I will continue to take this medication.
It is a really scary feeling to have your heart beating abnormally.
