How Long Do The Side Effect Of Wellbutrin Xl 300mg Last?
Hi, I recently quit marijuana about 10 days ago, and my psychiatrist put me on wellbutrin XL 300 mg. I have also been taking prozac 10 mg for about a year now too. Prior to starting wellbutrin, I was anxious and lost complete appetite it s been difficult to eat but i try my best to. However, I try to endure the anxiety but it is so overwhelming. How long does the side effect last? I know that wellbutrin has the potential to cause anxiety. I am also prescribed ativan sublingual and clonazepam R 0.5mg both are indicated as needed. However, in the past week i have been taking it daily because i feel that i need it. Please let me know how much longer these symptoms will last... or when I will stop feeling this.

Difficult to say. First of all anxiety is quite common with prozac. You might have noticed it more and it became more noticed and more intoleratlbe after the wellbutin , while still caused by the prozac. If the prozac is continued, the anxiety stays.
It might be an option to stop everything for a week and then reaasesss what drugs are causing what symptoms. I cannot say in yoru particular case, however,
