What Causes Anger And Muscle Weakness While On Bupropion And Propranolol?
I am a mental health therapist with an APN writing prescriptions for patients. A patient taking bupropion hcl oral and propranolol oral - is complaining about anger, hands and feet feel funny and he said I don t know I just feel retarded right now. He has been taking this combination of drugs for awhile. Thoughts?

Hello,
Since you are a doc I'm just giving you a short explanation. Bupropion's side effect by itself is agitation and anger. If the patient has been given this for smoking cessation then the effect of withdrawal can add up the effect.
I believe he is on the "honeymoon" period of bupropion. Please you will find more when you search for the honeymoon effect of bupropion.
