Eps after adding bupropion.
I’m diagnosed with ADHD, depression, anxiety disorder, adjustment disorder, and chronic anger issues. After adding Bupropion SR 150 mg, I developed EPS, likely due to interaction with Aripiprazole (currently 1.25 mg). I previously had EPS at 5 mg Abilify, but not at 2 mg without Bupropion. Currently, 1.25 mg Abilify isn’t helping with my anger/irritability, and I’m sensitive to antipsychotics overall. Would Cariprazine be a better option with lower EPS risk and better emotional control, especially alongside Bupropion? Current meds: • Prozac 40 mg • Axepta 40 mg BID • Bupropion SR 150 mg • Aripiprazole 1.25 mg • Depakote XR 250 mg • Ritalin (SOS) • L-Carnosine • Magnesium L-Threonate Thanks in advance!

Yes Bupropion increases the levels of aripirazole because it inhibits one CYP enzyme in liver. But you need another medicine for problems. I can't suggest any medicine based on the question. Please consult nearest Psychiatrist
