While there are no specific dosing guidelines for this drug combination, Dr. Jahan advises that the doses be adjusted or medications stopped if you have trouble tolerating them.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-happens-if-you-take-trazodone-and-wellbutrin-together\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What happens if you take <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">trazodone<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wellbutrin<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> together?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People who take <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wellbutrin<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">trazodone<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> together do so to help ease their insomniac sleep patterns and improve the regulation of <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">dopamine<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> neurotransmitters in the brain.

As the liver metabolizes both medications through a similar process, the liver may prioritize the metabolism of <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wellbutrin<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> over <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">trazodone<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. If the liver is busy metabolizing <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wellbutrin<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, then the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">trazodone<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> cannot go through that process. This can result in the dose of <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">trazodone<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to be greater and\/or longer than what the expectation should be, leading to supratherapeutic effects.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Jahan also explains that taking <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wellbutrin<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">trazodone<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> may be unsafe for people with heart problems. \u201cThe heart can be affected with this combination, so cardiac monitoring is preferred,\u201d he says. \u201cBoth medications individually can increase risk of QT prolongation, cardiac arrhythmias, hypotension, orthostasis, and syncope, so a combination of these medications would increase the risk of above-mentioned <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">adverse effects<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> further.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to heart or liver problems, Dr. Jahan advises against mixing <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wellbutrin<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">trazodone<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> if you\u2019re already taking other <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">antidepressants<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, such as <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (SSRIs)<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. \u201cSuch combinations can induce a hypertensive crisis or cause <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">serotonin syndrome<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">,\u201d he says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.heart.org\/en\/health-topics\/high-blood-pressure\/understanding-blood-pressure-readings\/hypertensive-crisis-when-you-should-call-911-for-high-blood-pressure\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hypertensive crisis<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a sudden, severe increase in <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">blood pressure<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
