Can I take Sedoxil and Wellbutrin together?

Why this happens

Both medicines affect the central nervous system. Sedoxil (mexazolam) is a benzodiazepine that slows down brain activity to reduce anxiety. Wellbutrin (bupropion) is an antidepressant. When used together, their sedative effects add up, leading to increased drowsiness and impaired physical or mental function.

What you should do

You should speak to your doctor before taking these together. If your doctor has prescribed both, be very careful when driving or using machinery. Avoid drinking alcohol, as this will make the sleepiness much worse. Seek medical help immediately if you experience extreme drowsiness or difficulty breathing.
