An Introduction to Dosing With Forfivo
There is only one available dosage for Forfivo™ XL (
bupropion XL), as the medication comes in just one strength. However, this amount may not be right for everyone. If you need a lower dose, you will need to take a different bupropion medication.
As is always the case, do not adjust your dosage unless your healthcare provider specifically tells you to do so.
Forfivo XL Dosage for Depression
If you are not currently taking bupropion in some form, you should not start taking
Forfivo XL. This is because Forfivo XL comes in only one strength, which is too high of a starting dosage for people to take initially. Other bupropion products include:
You should not start with a high dose of bupropion without being on a lower dosage first, as this can lead to
seizures or other dangerous problems.
If you have been on at least 300 mg of bupropion (in any form) daily for at least two weeks, you can be switched to Forfivo XL 450 mg once daily. If 450 mg is too much for you for any reason, including liver or kidney problems, then you cannot take Forfivo XL.
