miranda_perry 1 Posted February 27, 2017 I am wondering if anyone here is on Wellbutrin and have the noticed more weight loss with this medicine? I am on latuda, Paxil, and depakote all which cause weight. I am stuck in the 170's despite working out and eat good. I am frustrated and want some guidance from others who are on mental health drugs.Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G33kg1rl 36 Posted March 17, 2017 I'm on Wellbutrin and have never experienced weight loss on it. Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings. Maybe your doctor knows of some medications that help with weight loss? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SeaShells82 96 Posted March 17, 2017 When I first started Wellbutrin I did notice I had very little appetite but that only lasted about 2-3 weeks. After that, everything returned to normal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tinytummy17 62 Posted March 17, 2017 My dr says it will help with weight loss but I've been on it for 3 years and it hasn't. However I was just sleeved last week so idk how it will work now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ldyvenus 317 Posted March 17, 2017 I tried it a few years ago, hoping to lift my mood and maybe lose a few pounds. All it did was make me really angry. 👿 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Winky7650 19 Posted March 17, 2017 I have been on Wellbutrin for 3+ years. The first 6 weeks it caused nausea and I had problems eating. After I got used to it, I think it has caused weight gain. The only one that caused me to lose weight is Cymbalta. I am still pre-op though (surgery 4/17), I don't know what the effects will be after. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anna Nim 196 Posted September 27, 2017 Following. I took Wellbutrin shortly during a rough patch, but I can't say how it worked. I have had a Sleeve and am SO obessed with food and depressed in general, that I need some help. I want to go into a Dr. with a plan already, not sure if my bari doctor is the best person for psy meds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
