Hi, Fox. That combination shouldn't be a problem - I have a son who takes both of those drugs, as well as Abilify, and he's doing fine. I'm assuming that whoever prescribed the ritalin knew about the Wellbutrin. Anyway, I wouldn't worry about it. Just to ease your mind, you could ask your pharmacist.
