I have a history of depression and have taken 1 Wellbutrin-SR a day, the script calls for 2 a day but I seem ok on one. Anyway I was switched from Zoloft to Wellbutrin about 3 years ago and now that I really think about it, I think the constipation has been worse. Shortly after starting the Wellbutrin I started Mira-Lax but have recently stopped that because of the gas it created(like I don't make enough gas of my own! ) I have read that there are different classes of anti depressants and certain ones worked better for IBS. I called the pharmacist and he said constipation is a common side effect of Wellbutrin. I'm waiting for a call back from my doctor to see about changing to a different one. Any suggestions?
