How long does it take a prescription like Wellbutrin to start working?

Most antidepressants take 6-8 weeks to completely kick in. Depending on what kind of Wellbutrin you're taking, SR or XL, the time of day does matter. If you only have to take Wellbutrin SR once a day, take it in the morning. If you are taking Wellbutrin XL, I would take it in the morning, if it doesn't make you too drowsy. But I don't think it makes that big of a difference.

If it doesn't work in the next few weeks, go back to your doctor. Some antidepressants don't work for some people. There are so many different ones and there may be a medication that works better.

Ughhhhhh I have tried to take this medicine not once but twice in the past 4 years. I had the same effects as you! I hated it. I stopped taking it all together. Go back to your doctor and explain what is happening. There are a ton of other meds you can try. I tried Elavil, it was ok. But I have stopped taking any of the antidepressants all together. Like I said, go and talk with your doctor, because at 3 weeks this stuff should be helping you, not make you feel worse. Good luck to you!

Also, there are different types of medications for different levels of depression. If you are not sure of which category you are in, have them test you. It is easy, just a questionnaire type thing.

I agree with waiting 6-8 weeks for it's full effects. One of the side effects is "psychotic outbursts," and when I started taking it I remember being a little crazy for a while. It was really rough. But it went away. I take 450 mgs now and I'm doing fantastic. Just give it time.

Among those Wellbutrin fallouts, loss of appetite, loss of normal thinking, loss of feelings, worsening depression, increase in blood pressure are such fallouts of Wellbutrin XL which have appeared after the consumption of Wellbutrin XL.

There are two types of strategies that can be used to handle the fallouts of Wellbutrin XL. One, if the side effects of Wellbutrin are serious and are appeared after the consumption of Wellbutrin XL, it that case, it is highly recommended to contact and consult a doctor and seek a medical advice on the side effects of Wellbutrin and weight obtain. It is highly required to provide a full piece of information to the doctor on the medical problem. If the doctor is not informed fully, it may be very difficult for him to diagnose the side effects of Wellbutrin weight gain properly.

Second, due to some reasons, one is unable to reach or access to a doctor for the diagnosis of medical problems, then it the first thing would be to stop taking the dose of Wellbutrin weight gain. By stopping the dose of Wellbutrin weight obtain, there are chances that the intensity of the side effects of Wellbutrin and weight gain would decrease. After reduction in the side effects of Wellbutrin, a sense of relief would be felt by patient. It is also suggested that after this step, efforts must be taken to contact and consult a doctor for curing the side effects of Wellbutrin and weight gain.

You do not say what your dosage is. I take 400 a day..it's a lot. maybe you need more of the medication. Ask your doctor.

Give it one more week. I had the same experience and it got better. if it doesn't, you may be one of the few that it doesn't help. see your doctor in a week or two.
