Hi, @jadillow, that is unfortunate that in the last 6-7 months bupropion (Wellbutrin) does not seem to do anything for you, and you are also having issues that appear to be heart-related. I would feel frustrated in that situation.
You are wise to be wary about the process of tapering off one medication and bringing on another in combination with the one you are tapering off of. I'd like to bring in a few members who have talked about buproprion (Wellbutrin) to get their thoughts on the immediate quitting of this medication, plus the combination of buproprion (Wellbutrin) and clonazepam like @elained @suecreader @merpreb @jbp26 @jeff49 @susan2018 @jakedduck1.
@jadillow, have you had the opportunity to speak to your doctor or a pharmacist about your questions on quitting the bupropion (Wellbutrin) cold turkey and any possible interactions with the clonazepam?

Although I take Wellbutrin, I don’t have personal experience to share about the issues raised here . I think a direct question to the physician is immediately in order as to why he chose to abruptly withdraw you from it rather than wean you off, the question about Clonazepam as well as things you should be aware of and watch for during this process. Another resource as suggested by Lisa is your pharmacist. Even if you get your meds through a mail order pharmacy, there are pharmacists who can answer questions.

Yes. The pharmacist told me to take one every other day for a few days and then stop so I’m going to try that.
