Question: I was prescribed 50mg vyvanse and have been on it for about 6 months. I was previously prescribed 150mg Wellbutrin by another Doctor for PTSD/depression issues. Is it safe to combine the two together?

I started the vyvanse/Wellbutrin together and have felt very lethargic/tired now. Could this be due to the combining of the meds?

Yes its safe to use Vyvanse 50 mg and 150 mg Bupropion together. No need to get worried. There are no serious drug interactions.

The lethargy or tiredness is not due to combining of medicines.
