Yes, I was diagnosed with epilepsy. In just about all the information I read, back in the day, it said not to take Wellbutrin if you have epilepsy or seizures. I was at such a low point in my life, so I decided to try it even though I knew it could cause a seizure. My OG/GYN prescribed it, and I am sure she did not know about the side effects.
Ok so were you diagnosed with epilepsy i was and my md said the Wellbutrin lowered my threshold for a seizure and i have been treated ever since every time I mentioned that fact they seem to dismiss the Wellbutrin
Yes. I had taken Wellbutrin for about 6 months and had a seizure. I was taking Wellbutrin for depression. If you read the notes that come with your medication from the pharmacy, just about every one of them lists seizures as a possible side effect. Wellbutrin went further than that and said that if you have seizures, don't take this medication, or something very similar. I knew that when my doctor put me on the medication, but I took it anyway. And 6 months later, I had my seizure.
Did anyone start having seizures after taking Wellbutrin to quit smoking?
Yes, some medications can lower the seizure threshold and increase the risk of seizures. While the search results don't specifically mention Wellbutrin by name, certain prescription medications are known to be associated with seizures as a side effect.
