Reply To: Buproprion & Headaches. Please say they go away

[Patte Rosebank]

@Maxbronz, headaches are a common side effect of that med., but severe headaches are less common and more serious, especially if you’re also experiencing extreme confusion.

Here’s a *legitimate* webpage, about Bupropion/Wellbutrin: http://www.drugs.com/bupropion.html. Do read it, because it’s important to know about the meds you’re taking.

Note that it is not officially approved for treating ADHD. It’s actually an antidepressant that can sometimes help with ADHD symptoms. But this is an *off-label* use, which is at your doctor’s (and your) own risk, because the drug company is not responsible for anything that happens during off-label use.

I’d suggest talking to your pharmacist first, because they often know more about meds than doctors do. And then, talk to your doctor, ASAP.
