This is my first time posting on this forum and I was wondering if anyone else has tried this combination? I started out in welbutrin xl 150mg and had a little dizziness and a severe headache on the fourth day and a little sleeplessness for a couple nights but then side effects subsided.

After being on that for a month my doctor switched me to the sr 200mg along with zoloft25mg. This is when I had more intense side effects. The first two days I had some nausea and sleeplessness.
The next couple days I had severe dizziness , headaches, tiredness, shaking (tremors), and hightened anxiety with one hallucination eoisode in the evening (i also have ptsd though). I suspect the dizziness came from the welbutrin increase and change to sr.it was so intense the fourth day I had trouble concentrating at work and by the end of the day I was contemplating getting off it.

I think the welbutrin change and addition of zoloft at the same time made me get side effects from both and at a more intense level! Today is day five and and my se's were significantly less with some moderate dizziness in the morning and a slight headache which made me feel relieved! So Im thinking I should give them both some more time before giving up on them.I appreciate any feedback

Hey, Meg29, and welcome to Psych Central! Evidently no one else has who has seen this post. How are things going now?

I know my doc is thinking of adding wellbutrin to my Zoloft and Gabapentin (neurontin) next time I see him (end of summer). So maybe then I we can comisserate.
