Budeprion for Depression User Reviews
- Meg...
- September 13, 2009
"A 57 y/o highly skilled mental health executive, usually patient and steady. I'd become increasingly fatigued, short-fused at work/home. Started Budeprion a month ago. First 3 days 150 mg, then 150 2x/day. Side effect - nausea. Cut back for a week to 150 once p/day. Up to 300 a week later. No nausea. Still moderately fatigued but enjoying exercise again. I'm no longer dismissing my stressors as part of life. I'm laying boundaries, which in itself is a stressor. I had an outburst this week at work due to disgust with the unacceptable volume of work. But I vented in a safe place. I have confidence in myself, employer, and family (whose expectations have been unreasonable) that the adjustment will have a positive outcome."

"Works pretty well for depression, usually at the other side of the coin if you've tried something like Celexa or Lexapro. Helps to lose the weight that was gained by using the others. Can cause initial sleep trouble, however."
