Dizzy on Wellbutrin XL

by Rob in Ohio, Jun 05, 2007 12:00AM
I've been on 10mg of Lexapro for the last 2 yrs to help my social anxiety. I recently told my Dr. that my sex drive had really come down. He prescribed me 150 mg Wellburtin XL. I decreased my dosage of Lexapro to 5mg over a week and now I'm finshed with Lexapro. I have been taking the Wellbutrin now for 4 days, and have been really dizzy. Almost to the point where I don't want to operate a vehicle? I hate it ! Is this normal? How long does this last? Should I concider going back to Lexapro?

my dr put me on lexapro to 10 mg a day but i never started it , do you remember the side affects , i just cant handle a lot of them i take a ativan if need so i have not started the other not sure i want to . did it do ok for you i know we are all different, if your not happy with the new one just call your dr and tell them you rather be on the old drug.thats what i did with my heart meds , because it was not life  danger they didnt care . it wont hurt to try or give it a few more days see how it does. but make your self happy . hope someone comes on who takes this drug and can help you out , you can also go on the deppersion site they talk alot about these kind of drugs
