Should I Be Concerned About Taking Wellbutrin For Weight Loss?

My doctor prescribed me Wellbutrin, take one 75mg tab in the AM and a second 75mg tab before 5pm. I’ve read the literature that comes with the prescription as well as the internet but have not read where it is prescribed to patients to help weight loss. I probably could use the help from the anti-depressant but I am far more worried about my weight at the moment. So, I’m wanting to know if anyone has been given this medication for the purpose of weight loss and if it helped, etc. Thanks!

I have never heard of it being used for weight loss. I’ve taken it both as an anti-depressant and as a stop smoking tool.
I would go back and clarify with your doctor.
Wellbutrin can often cause a loss of appetite, nausea, and vomiting — all of which may contribute to weight loss. Often, these side effects go away with time. However, you should be sure to let your healthcare provider know if these side effects do not go away. Also, since weight gain can be a symptom of depression, treating the depression can lead to weight loss.
If you are experiencing too much weight loss with Wellbutrin, be sure to let your healthcare provider know. Please see the source box below.
