General & Family Physician 's  Response
Thank you for asking!
Wellbutrin AKA bupropion has multiple uses and its indication decides when to take , how much to take and how to take.As you take it twice a day and it is famous for insomnia so i would recommend not to take second dose with in 6 hours of sleep. So 6 to 6 would be better. Dosages rescheduling and modification is some thing which needs a complete clinical correlation so get one.
Hope it helps
