Reality check - Budeprion XL 150 is not the same as Wellbutrin XL 150. That is why I feel horrible since switching to this generic drug. Sometimes I'm confused and tired, other times I'm full of anxiety and moody. The timed release doesn't work for me at all, lots of highs and lows. Maybe it's me, but I'm going back to the drug I know works - Wellbutrin.

The generic Budeprion XL 150 made by TEVA did not work for my daughter when she was switched from Wellbutrin XL 150. I filed a complaint with the FDA but they referred the investigation to TEVA. A TEVA representative called me, did not ask me to send in the medication for testing, then later sent me a letter stating they had completed their investigation and could find nothing wrong with their product. I am saving the pills for testing and contacted the FDA to complain again. So far no response from the FDA after eight months.
