In reply to welbutrin/zoloft combination, posted by iso_ananda on January 18, 2004, at 12:17:52
I was on Zoloft/Wellbutrin combo. for a while. (not on either of those now). The Wellbutrin did help my concentration and energy. My appetite was already killed by the Zoloft -- I can't remember if it was further killed by the Wellbutrin although I think I lost more weight when the Wellbutrin was added. I completely lost all craving for caffeine. Unfortunately it made me extremely irritable which is why I had to discontinue it, so I don't think I was on it long enough to realize an improvement in libido/sexual function.
Good luck.
Lynda> Hello all, I've been on SSRI's for depression for over ten years and have been taking Zoloft for about 3 yrs. I was having problems with decreased libido and asked my doc about adding wellbutrin to the zoloft. Since I occasionally suffer from panic attacks he warned me that Wellbutrin might contribute to anxiety but agreed to let me try it. I'm now on 100mg Zoloft and 300mg WellbutrinXL (recently increased from 150). I feel great, more energy, decreased appetite, and increased libido, have even been able to cut down on my caffeine intake. I'm interested in anyone elses experiences, especially those who have been on a similar combination for an extended period of time.
