    wellbutrin and cravings

    I have just started on an anti-depressant Wellbutrin 150mg per day. I am finding that my alcohol cravings have diminished? has anyone else exoerienced the same ? i have been on this med for approx. 1 week and can feel my ups and downs lessen and am feeling more in control. I am hoping this continues...feedback welcomed

    Wellbutrin was by far my favorite anti-depressant. I think the craving issue is different for everyone, but after only a week, your lack of alcohol cravings may be a placebo effect. But whatever works, right?? It's definitely effective in helping you quit smoking, which is an off-label use. The best thing about Wellbutrin is that it starts working faster than other anti-depressants, and it also has a slightly energizing effect. When I was on it after awhile, it did seem to help with my desire to quit a few addictions. Hopefully it works for you as well.
