most mornings I feel very nauseated,for a period of 30 min. My depression is at a so/ so level. I have felt better on Wellbutrin xl tab 300mg (non generic.)-- RX program makes generic $ saving.-- Want to go back to Wellbutrin 33mg. anyway. Felt much better and less depressed.

I have been on Budeprion XL for nearly one year. I have had a great success with it. Being on Effexor prior to this, it has been a great change for me. Only now am I noticing a small decrease in effectivness. I'm going to up my dose and see what happens. Overall I've been pleased.

Research on the Web is showing that many people are experiencing
