    My doctor switched me from effexor to this medicine because of my complaint about gaining weight. This medicine gave me many side effects including headaches, nausea, dizziness, coating on my tongue. I felt terrible on this medicine, and want to switch back to effexor. The weight gain was easier to deal with if i am going to feel as sick as I did on this medicine.

    Difficult to swallow, double the Rx strength (to get generic price for Wellbutrin XL 150), constant downer mood. Prefer Bupropion XL 300 split.

    Was on Wellbutrin for a yr then was switched to Budebrion. Been on Budeprion XL 300mg for a yr now. It's been great for me. Read all the other reviews which say it is terrible. Guess I must be the exception. I found absolutely no difference or side effects when I was switched over.
