I have been on Wellbutrin for 4 months and it has helped me with energy and positivity so much... 

Anyways.. I want to get scripted  tramadol but I just saw someone say it shouldn't be mixed with Snris but I havent a clue.. if that's true is there another cheaper pain med one would recommend 

 
@kyle4434 My body dosnt do well with stimulants, Welbutirn , Adderall pretty much left me with life long restless leg syndrome and CNS pain that noly Gabapentin has helped me with. I had to make to switch over to Lexapro

 
Hi there. I have a little knowledge in this area. Maybe I can help.

There is at least 2 reasons that I know of why these 2 meds don’t mix.  The first, being the most prevalent is Serotonin syndrome.  Most anti-depressant meds like Wellbutrin  cause an uptake of serotonin being created in the body. Serotonin is a chemical produced to regulate mood and to stabilize the mood. 
Tramadol is one of the main pain meds (there are a few) that can also be used as mood stabilizers or as pain meds. It can change the way your brain receives pain.  And can cause an uptake in serotonin. So these 2 together causes this risk to rise. Serotonin syndrome can be dangerous. Please google.

Second reason that these 2 meds don’t mix well is because they both can lower the seizure threshold.  Wellbutrin alone has been known to cause seizures in people who have seizure disorders or even in those who don’t.

Since Tramodol has ssri properties to it among other things, it has also caused seizures. So these 2 together may be dangerous. Some people can and take them safely and successfully together but it doesn’t come without some risk.

 
@kyle4434 To add to this is would HIGHLY recommend getting the ‘Epocrates’ app on your cellphone.  It will tell you all possible interactions for whichever drugs you input.  It’s an amazing app!  

 
@kyle4434 CONTRAVE is a drug with Naltrexone/Bupropion ER (aka Wellbutrin).

It's used as a weight loss drug.  My point here is that it's MAYBE possible Wellbutrin can be mixed with other things too, but maybe start by reading about CONTRAVE and you'll learn about some of the interactions https://contrave.com/how-contrave-works/

P.S. I swear I'm an Engineer and NOT a pharmaceutical rep for Naltrexone, LOL.

  10. shoutback @ shoutback: Oh and GO SEAHAWKS
  11. shoutback @ shoutback: Anyways I have to get ready to go on my run, it's been fun talking
  12. shoutback @ shoutback: I think when we have open discourse without preconceptions we all agree more than we disagree
  13. D @ drdrizzy13: Oh I totally agree and I agree the War on Drugs was and is a complete failure.
  14. shoutback @ shoutback: I'm not trying to say my point of view is better than others, just think we need to have more open and honest discussion about everything
  15. D @ drdrizzy13: You are right it probably doesn't. It has pretty much ruined my other first cousins live. He is so out there. It just sucks to see ya know. They take it to the extreme.
  16. shoutback @ shoutback: @drdrizzy13 your exoerience does not reflect the overall mainstream
  17. D @ drdrizzy13: yea for sure.
  18. shoutback @ shoutback: This is one of the few places in the internet where we can freely discuss this things and taking reactive stance like fentanyl and zenes are the devil do not promote a heathy discourse on the subject, though I understand admin also does not want to be under constant threat of people like the dea and fda
  19. D @ drdrizzy13: Honestly I can't think of any alcohoclis except for a friends Dad. I haven't drank in 10 years. I don't really hang around peole that drink or go to bars. I just hate being around drunks lol. And going to bars sucks if your not drinking too.
  20. shoutback @ shoutback: We don't work on something and do not continue developing with developing safeguards and appropriate treatment methods we adapt to what we learn. How many people do you know with alcohol addictions ? How many violent rapes and murders do we see happen under someone under the influence of alcohol yet alcohol is not demonized in the way fentanyl is and that affects much less people. Let's not be hypocritical. The prohibition model does not work and this is no place where we should be promoting it
