Bupropion - Which one do more people have better success with: Wellbutrin SR or Wellbutrin XL?
Just curious. I see quite a difference in the generics. I've tried many of them, believe me. I see lots of people talk about wellbutrin xl. Personally, I didn't like it. However, I did find a generic wellbutrin sr that I feel works most like the brand name.
