To quickly access health information from your website's browser, download Is Wellbutrin Cause of Seizure? I was prescribed this medication by my psychiatrist to treat anxiety & depression. I had been taking them for about a week at the time. The morning of my seizure I remember taking 2 pills instead of 1 per my recommended dosage. I was not feeling the effect of 1 so I took 2 instead. I went to work as usual & about midday a stressful event occured at work. I work in sales & normally handle a heavy workload with ease, but this day as I became anxious. My heart began to race & all of a sudden I felt really weak. Well, that’s all I remember and about 5 minutes later (I was told), I awoke laying on the ground with my co-workers surrounding me with horrified looks on their faces. I was told I passed out, hit my head and started shaking uncontrollably with my eyes wide open gasping for air. The paramedics then came & rushed me to the hospital where I spent 3 days recovering from a grand mal seizure If I had been driving when this happened, I could have killed myself or someone else.
