I dont really know much about wellbutrin but i will tell u that before I got off the vicoden my dr put me on cymbalta and its been great for me and is supposed to work well for pain too. Wellbutrin is supposed to help with smoking addiction though
Are you sure its not Buprenorphine .I have never heard of using wellbutrin for drug addiction unless you are suffering from addiction.
I think Bupropion is Wellbutrin, an anti-depressant. I'm not really sure about it having the same effect as vicodin, but it could help if you're feeling depressed. I took wellbutrin as a teenager along with zoloft, and it worked well for me back then. I don't know much else about it other than that and I don't know your situation, but I hope it works for you!
