Is it common for Wellbutrin to lose it's effectiveness?

I've been on it for perhaps 8 months now.
Answers:
Wellbutrin is a Godsend drug if it's the right one for you.As far as losing its effectiveness, I'm not sure. What I do know is, your chemistry may need an increased dose. Also, you have to consider which one to take; SR or XL. One of the differences in these two is the way they are released. Over 8 hours or over 24, respectively. The best advise I would give is one, be very careful when it comes to just any doctor prescribing this. It can be a dangerous drug. A history of seizures is a big reason not to take it, as an example. You also need to know your depression.(if your taking this for a smoking sessation reasons, it's a whole different ball game except for the medical warnings). A psychiatrist should determine this, in my opinion. There is no stigma in this. You are not crazy. This is a chemical imbalance. The best thing you can do is educate yourself. You should never take any drug because someone prescribed it. This could be the wrong drug for your depression. You may need to try several to get the results that decrease your symptoms. Take charge of your body. I'ts your responsibility too; not just your doctors. Good luck.

Yes it does and your doctor shoud have seen the signs by now. If it has done this with you. I don't know what reason you are taking this but you should try natural ways to get rid of your problem. Be careful there are alot of risks taking this.
