I have Wellbutrin rash after going up to 300 mgs. Anyone have similar and how long is healing time?

I took 150 mg for 2 weeks and all was well. Doc increased dosage to 300mg and I had a major allergic reaction. From my neck to my butt cheeks... rash and hives. Miserable! Major itching all over; hot under my skin and skin both felt and appeared pink as if sunburnt... with white splotches scattered in between the pink rashes scattered about. I also had a major headache and Major dry eyes. I did some research and discovered that the MANUFACTURE was different for 150 (Activis) and 300 (Par). I went completely off of everything until all itching was gone. Went back to 150, but take 2 pills. One in morning and one at lunch. It is extended release. I hope this helps others who know the 150 worked and want to avoid some of the other meds with nasty side affects, including lack of sexual function. I take the generic Wellbutrin... it has given me back my sex life, reduced anxiety, and helped with adhd. I also take generic for Ritalin. If you are having problems with your 300mg... check the manufacture. Also, there is info on the internet regarding the inconsistency with the generics. I would encourage you to research it.

Dogmommy3; Did your doctor lower the dose back, Or change the medication with Wellbutrin some people just can't handle the higher dose. But we are all different and as far as the rash and what they gave you for the hives and rash most people are over it in 7 to 10 days. But it does not if you're still on the medication. make sure you talk with the doctor that increase the Wellbutrin you may have to change that one. Good luck but it will be gone long before your sept. appt.
