Wellbutrin - Hair loss & weight gain?

That is not my experience.
Wellbutrin has leveled out my highs/lows,
helped me lessen the urge to smoke,
but I do notice a certain lack of emotion.
I'm not ever VERY HAPPY
OR VERY SAD... just... flat
People have said I don't seem to *care* about anything.
But I've suffered through such dramatic emotional turmoil for decades and it's a relief to feel *flat*.
There has been no hair loss or weight gain either..
My dose is low as I am a Nervous Nelly w meds
Hope this helps.

Hi, Abivythes!
My own experience is that in the 4 years I've been taking bupropion (Wellbutrin) I've had no hair loss, weight change, or side effects. Although weight gain is possible there's a better chance of losing weight if you have any change at all.

"Uncommon (0.1% to 1% of users): Alopecia"
"Very common (10% or more of users): Weight loss greater than 2.3 kg (up to 28%), weight gain greater than 2.3 kg (up to 11%)"
2.3kg = 5.07Lbs.

Best regards and I hope it will help you as much as it has me.
