| 5 | Major Depression | I had a weird pressure in my head for the first 10 days...like a headache with no pain. I completely lost my appetite. My stomach felt fine & food tasted good...I just never got hungry. I had to make sure to eat & drink at regular intervals because I was getting dehydrated and passing out. All side effects completely gone after 3 months. | This drug increased my libido, a welcome effect, as the depression had completely killed any sexual desire. It also seems to have reduced the amount of acid my stomach produces, and thus has cured many gastrointestinal problems I've had over the years. I have lots of energy and great concentration. After taking Wellbutrin, I have entered the most productive and creative time of my life. | F | 35 | | 2/1/2001 | 5 | Depression | I experienced no side effects. Had a dramatic increase in sexual desire though. Husband said it is like Viagra for Women. | F | 27 | | 2/5/2001 | 5 | To stop smoking | It stopped my depression (huge plus). Stopped my craving for smoking. (Zyban seemed to strong, this worked perfectly for me) Also helped kill my appetite. I do have problems sleeping now though. But high energy during the day. | When I first started taking wellbutrin I was also taking diet pills without my doctor knowing this. This is a big no no. It reversed my appetite to starving all the time. And I became very mean and hateful to my family. | F | 35 | | 6/25/2001 | 5 | | 7/2/2004 | 5 | PANIC ATTACKS | SLEEPLESSNESS | WORKS WELL | F | 33 | | 5/11/2004 | 5 | | 5/12/2004 | 5 | | 5/13/2004 | 5 | | 5/20/2004 | 5 | | 6/4/2004 | 5 | | 6/18/2004 | 5 | | 6/18/2004 | 5 | | 1/28/2005 | 5 | | 1/16/2005 | 4 | M | | 6/28/2002 | 4 | Depression | F | 29 | | 5/2/2005 | 4 | M | 31 | | 7/17/2005 | 4 | depression | weight gain..abdominal weight gain... suddenly..40-45lbs within a year without changes in food intake. talked a lot.. excited a great deal.. recall everything clearly..am still taking the drug | F | 45 | | 5/27/2001 | 4 | Smoking cessation | I did quit smoking. | M | 48 | 150 MG 1X day | 9/7/2014 Patient History | 3 | Depression, mood swings | F | 48 | 100mg 1X day | 6/15/2014 Patient History | 3 | mild depression, mood swings | Days 4 & 5, no side effects. But on day 6 I was very constipated. I counteracted it with a laxative. Have had a headache and upset stomach for the last couple of days. | F | 43 | 150mg 1X day | 1/13/2011 Patient History |
