| 1 | Smoking cessation | Trying to quit smoking. Didn't really help and increased my anxiety. Also was on Paxil previously and gained a lot of weight. Was hoping that Bupropion would decrease my appetite but no such luck. Do not recommend if you already have anxiety issues. | F | 44 | 7 days 150 1X day | 4/4/2021 | 5 | To stop smoking, then for anxiety | Smoking cessation was successful with little desire to begin smoking again. No bad side effects that I am aware of. I do feel calmer and take situations in stride as compared to wanting to "fix" everything that occurs. My anxiety is GREATLY reduced allowing me to accept the things that I can not "fix" nor change. | F | 71 | 14 years 150 mg 2X day | 7/13/2020 | 3 | Quit smoking, and anxiety | Parniod and emotional, | I have not taken it long at all, however I've notice on most of the comments and reviews of this drug most of every one over 25 is rating the drug dissatisfied or under 3. And most of every one that is under 25 years old rates 3 and above. I don't know if, I have felt the actual side effects because I haven't taken it long. It hasn't subsided the urge to smoke or smoking persa, I actually smoke a lot for being 24. I hope it starts working for my anxiety and smoking. But no bad side effects "knock on wood" lol. | F | 24 | 4 days 100 HCL | 2/5/2016 | 5 | Depression, Anxiety, Quit smoking | Unable to sleep/eat, unable to have an erection or preform sexualy, and mild diarrhea followed by severe diarrhea followed by extreme diarrhea. | All in all a wonderful medication and experience. 10/10 would take again. | M | 34 | 1 days 150 MG | 11/25/2015 | 3 | Stop Smoking, Depression | Metallic taste, rapid weight loss, persistent cough, desire to smoke more | This medication did help with my depression and fatigue, but it did not help me to quit smoking. | F | 41 | 45 days 150 1X day | 7/13/2015 | 3 | Depress, quit smoking, stress | A little dizzyness stomach pain | Just started taking bupropion hcl! Idk I feel that it's working but am not myself feels weird! If helps with my stress I don't get as mad as I used to! Makes me more calm. But what I don't like is that am not that alert! Like a little space OUT. Don't know if I should still take them. But I do feel that there working. | M | 38 | 3 days 75 | 2/4/2015 | 3 | stop smoking | This medicine makes me sick...literally...loss of appetite...nausea...vomiting..dizziness...lightheaded almost feel high....the only thing about it is...It makes me too sick to smoke! | F | 36 | 2 weeks | 1/18/2013 | 2 | stress/depression/quit smoking | Nausia, loss of appetite, dizziness, trouble sleeping, increased sex drive, aggitaion, anxiety, headache, increased depression, some sort of vaginal irritation/swelling | I haven't been on this very long. It is very expensive, 130.00 for 30days of 150mg once a day, and I have insurance. I went up to 300mg a day(as recommended if I didn't notice effectiveness after 4-5 days) and side effects seemed to worsen. I'm having "bad" days where I just want to cry all day, don't want to go anywhere, be social at all, and am more depressed. I'm having anxiety issues along with some paranoia. I'm not getting angry as easily but more little things are seem to aggitate me more than before. I'm having an increased sex drive, but the last time I had sex it was uncomfortable and unsatisfying. I don't know that it is worth the side effects to continue taking this medication. I feel like I was more stable before. | F | 31 | 2 weeks | 4/8/2009 |
