wellbuttrin vs bupropion vs budeprion

My husband was taking Wellbutrin sr 150 the doctor upped him to 200 sr and they gave him buprion 200 sr(on the bottle it says just Bupr). He had lots of energy on the Wellbutrin sr150 and was a pleasure to be arounds, but on this 200 buprionsr he goes to sleep and is like snappen at me all the time. After reading some of these questions I am worried that things are going to go back to the way they were before he started taking his meds.I dont know if it is because they gave him a larger dosage or because it is a generic. When I ask him about it he just says I dont know anything because I am not a doctor. Is there any info you can give me as to if its that he may be taking too much or could it be the generic is not working right

Buproprion is just the chemical name for the brand name Wellbutrin. Buproprion SR means Substained Released. Indeed the generic could be not working, I've seen this happen in some people. Better check this out with his doctor.

Of course the increased dosage could have some side-effects but you didn't mention since when he switched.

Easiest way to find out is to go back on the name brand and see if there's a difference.
