Guest guest Posted May 3, 1999 Report Share Posted May 3, 1999 Hi there: Just checking in to report good success with the anti-depressant Wellbutrin. After six weeks I have noticed an improvement in depression and an actual lessening of RLS symptoms. I have gradually taken myself off St. 's Wort because of the possible conflict of MOA's, although I took both at first without an apparent problem. I have been able to reduce my Permax somewhat and soon will try to eliminate the small amount of Xanax I'm taking at bedtime. All this and it puts a damper on my appetite too! Keep your fingers crossed for me! Margaret, almost 48 Alberta, Canada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 30, 2000 Report Share Posted June 30, 2000 , I was taking Prozac pre-op. My surgery was on Friday and I saw Dr. R in clinic on Tues post-op... at that time I asked when I could start back on the Prozac and he told me I could start back on it. You should be able to take the Wellbutrin whole. You will have other pills to swallow and that isn't really a problem unless you try to take a lot of them at one time.
