Medical forums are crap and no one seems to have an experience to describe so I have come to you guys.
I'm on wellbutrin/bupropion, What will happen if I drink alcohol?
For extra information for a possible anonymous diagnosis: Cough syrup like mucinex makes buzz like I took prescription strength pain killers not unpleasant. also no increased heart rate leading to possibility of impending stroke.
I need to know since my 21st birthday is soon and I drink for the taste and to take off the edge when I feel too stiff.
I just got held against my will because I OD'd on bupropion

nah man, its to keep this lows from being too low. I know myself for a fact that I wouldn't cry over spilled milk

I was on those meds and consumed alcohol frequently without issues. HOWEVER, a medical doctor will rightly tell you that this puts tremendous stress on your liver and is thus ill advised. I no longer take those meds.

I've been off and on it. The general doc can prescribe this to me(all other meds I had to see a psych for), that should tell you something. They hand it out to literally anyone (people who need to loose weight, people who need to quit smoking). I highly doubt it has such adverse side effects that you're thinking.

yeah I get a blood test for accutane to make sure my liver is okay. For that one in particular they told me "you can drink but don't do anything stupid, if you do your lab results will show it". They don't do that to people taking wellbutrin so I doubt it.

My depression isn't strong though. its more of an annoyance that wont go away so I'm smothering it
