They put me on Wellbutrin to stop smoking and help with my depression do any of you get headaches from it? I just started this medicine a day ago so i really dont know what to expect!
I don't have headaches from taking it. Monitor them and if they continue for too long then check in with your doctor. All the best!
Can't sait has ever given me a headache but initially took it twenty years ago and killed my desire for cigarettes. Havent smoked in 20 years since I took it! :) back on it again now but am running out of options-- I've taken so many anti-depressants that don't work and think my depression is trestmdnt resisant ;(
I use to take another med that increased seratonine levels in the brain. It was the wrong med and !Y brain makes enough of it naturally. But Welleburtin though increases dopamine levels which my brain is not producing enough of. So if one type of med works great! If not though then talk to your doctor as my body made enough of one type of chemical but not another. I take it twice a day. Know the serious side effects as some of these meds if the wrong ones can make conditions worse. I think it is helping me, but I wonder having been on it for many years now that my body may have adjusted to it too well. If so the dose can be added to, a new med introduced to work with it or new meds all together. I take mine one in the morning and one before bed. Some days are better than others, but I likely will now be initiated for the rest of my life or another type that provides what my body naturally doesn't make enough of now.
I take Wellbutrin twice a day. I do like them. They seem to give me more energy. The headaches will go away. But give it some time.ive been on every depressant made.write down how you feel when you take it.give it a chance if this one isn't right their is always thousands more
Please, take the time and read the information that comes with t the med.. It's VERY important and informative.
