does welbutrin work for fibromyalgia

Not for me. I was on it for a couple years. It did, however, help me to stop smoking.

I quit taking it last month. I know it was part of my insomnia/sleeping problems.

Good Luck!

I get the feleling where my skin is crawling or like a restless leg syndome with my Fibro. It made those symptoms worse.

For those of you who think Wellbutrin caused you to have problems sleeping -- when did you take it? I'm looking into alternatives for Paxil and Amytriptiline, and would like to know more. My doc is thinking the new one on tv commercials - Cymbalta?
Wishing you peace and comfort,
Paddy

I took the wellbutrin xl 300 mg in the morning (around 8am).
