Brief Answer:
if there is convulsion, see doctor immediately
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for writing to us.
You mentioned that you felt seizer, is it convulsion? If convulsion/seizure (tongue bite, stiffening of body, loss of consciousness) is there, consult doctor immediately
Otherwise from narration of symptoms it looks like panic attack.
If you are sure that is it due to taking wellbutrin 300, no need to worry. All these will subside soon and you will be completely fine within an hour provided that you have taken wellbutrin first time in life.
You need not to go to hospital in this case.
If you are taking wellbutrin since long please let me know since when you are taking, for which problem/indication and with doctor's guidance/prescription or your own. Do you have any history of such problem in past with wellbutrin or any other medicines?
Hope you got the answer, revert back me with detail if you have further queries.
Regards,
Dr.Chintan Solanki.

I paid attension that since taking wellbutrin I fill different. until to night that almost I was going to collapse. Now after reading some side effect signs I am sure that from warfrain. Is it possible seizer comes again ,or is it dangerious to go to sleep. I am awake and scared to go to sleep.

Brief Answer:
Visit your doctor soon to prevent adverse effects
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for information.
Wellbutrin can cause seizure at 300 mg dose in 0.1 % of patients. As you have taken it since 9 days, due to its pharmcodynamic & pharmacokinetic properties, wellbutrin will take time to clear totally from the body (roughly 40 -70 hours).
No specific interaction between warfarin and wellbutrin found out but warfarin can cause increase side effects of wellbutrin according to some reports and
vice-e-versa wellburin may cause to warfarin side effects like hemorrhage.
You have written, “ Now after reading some side effect signs I am sure that from warfrain.”I think you wanted to say wellbutrin instead of warfarin. Please clarify it.
And what is content of thynanol? Are you asking about tylenolol?
In this condition now I can say you should visit doctor now to prevent any further seizure or adverse reaction like bleeding, though chances of the same are less. You should go to your treating doctor who has prescribed warfarin or wellbutrin.You can be helped with anti anxiety medicines like klonopin but strictly under doctor's supervision.
Hope I have answered your query. If still any query there, I will be happy to answer.
If not, you can close the discussion and if feasible give your feedback so I can improve service. In future you can contact me directly if you wish with this link:
