Is there an interaction between zopiclone and Wellbutrin?

37-year-old womana year ago
Hello, My spouse takes zopiclone 7.5 mg on occasion for sleep difficulties. He was also prescribed Wellbutrin XL 150mg to regain his cognitive abilities following a depression (treated without medication. Just a lot of effort, determination and patience)

Hello, ma'am,
Has your spouse started the new medication? If so, what did his pharmacist tell him about it?
37-year-old woman · a year ago
Hello,
Yes, he started it last Friday. He told her to avoid alcohol, cold medicine for the first week. And to inform him of certain side effects like dry mouth. But nothing else about taking sleeping pills with it

Thanks for the information!
Zopiclone can be taken 30-45 minutes before bedtime if your spouse is taking Wellbutrin. There is no interaction that would significantly affect either of them.
If Wellbutrin causes drowsiness, the dose or appropriateness of zopiclone should be reassessed with your pharmacist.
Sincerely,
Tom Samaha, Pharmacist
