I took Wellbutrin XL a few years ago and now I think I need it again (it's one of the few that didn't give me side effects), but would have to take Bupropion XL instead. I'm hearing bad things about Teva. Does anyone know if they fixed the problem? If not, then I can get the 150's by either Sandoz or Global.
Oh, and I tried the SR version and it made me anxious and dizzy.
Any comments would be appreciated.
Thanks!

I have different insurance and can't afford Wellbutrin unfortunately.

in my experience they were both bad for me. but i think the main one to go on was the TEVA brand. Not Lemon brand.
and i thought someone mentioned that wellbutrin made their own generic as well?? so it would be buproprion NOT budeprion.
but you may want to do a search on the boards.
last year i had SO much trouble with this i remember lOTs of other posters too. maybe july august sometime last year?anyway. i Definately understand the lack of $$. so i wish you the best of luck with the generics.

Well I picked up the prescription last night and it's made by Global so we'll see how it goes. The Teva brand (budeprion) was three times the price for some reason.
Thanks for your reply.
