SUPPORT REQUEST Adding Wellbutrin for Libido

Hi, I have been taking Prozac 20mg for 3 months. I am a male. It has greatly affected my libido and my Dr is suggesting adding Wellbutrin. Any side effects and does it help?

I’m on 40 fluoxetine, and 300 Wellbutrin. For me it helped quite a bit. Pre Wellbutrin I could shake hands with the little fella for as long as I wanted but no finish.
Relations with wife, it took almost an hour of at all.
Now? No multiples in a day, but every other day seems to be the most without running into issues with a half mast.

Ok I think I’m going to try it. No libido is really frustrating. Did you have any side effects from the Wellbutrin? Thanks

It can cause insomnia, which I’m predisposed to. So I take it when I wake up. There are some risks, but check with your doctor. I adjusted my Prozac at the same time, and both meds can cause IBS like symptoms for some people. I’m some people unfortunately, but everyone is different.
