Hi ken

regarding wellbutrin being a dopamine reuptake inhibitor, exactly - one would think it would have a symptomatic effect on PD. But my neurologist made a point of telling me that theory was not supported by research. i think she said something about there being two different dopamine stomping grounds in the brain - one was involved in movement but the other was busy with other things (not sure what). her theory, if i remember this correctly, was that wellbutrin's action was centered in the non-movement-related stomping ground.

haven't looked any studies up myself, but my experience is that it definitely has a symptomatic effect.
