Budeprion Sr Manufacturers/availability
UpdatedDoes anyone know if Budeprion HCL (ER, SR...) is still being distributed at all in the US? Years ago I was Rx'ed generic Wellbutrin SR, always had filled at Target and always received the TEVA Budeprion SR formula. It worked wonderfully for me.
Now that TEVA's Budeprion formulations have been pulled, my Rx's are filled with the Bupropion HCL or Bupropion HBR ER/SR - I haven't found a generic manufacturer of the bupropion (Mylan, Actavis, etc.) that works nearly as well as the budeprion. In fact, some generics have made me so ill that I've actually have a "poisioned-like" feeling (for lack of a better description) begin to ramp up after 2 weeks of a specific generic, every time I've tried that specific generic. Other generics seem to have no effect whatsoever.
After taking various generic formulas since TEVA Budeprion has become unavailable, I stopped taking this month's Bupropion HCL SR 200mg tabs. I'm so discouraged and disgusted by lack of efficacy and side-effects that feel like they're getting progressively worse instead of better each day of taking the Rx as prescribed.
I've been reading the posts about the Valeant Wellbutrin XL, but I'm weary because I've never taken the brand formulation, and it's bupropion - whereas the budeprion worked for me effectively.
I apologize to rant and whine, I'm just at my wit's-end. I've even checked Orangebook to investigate all the listed "generic Wellbutrin" mfg's listed, incase something new pops up, to no avail...

Unfortunately no, from what I can find they have discontinued the Budeprion brand with NDC: 00093-5351
The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, mood changes, irritability, and nervousness.

Have you discussed the problem with your doctor? You might need a dosage adjustment when taking the others, or you may need to try a different medication entirely.
