Are Side Effects Different With Wellbutrin & Generic?

I have been taking 300 mg of the generic, bupropion, for 10 months now. About 3 months after starting, I noticed I was losing hair. A few months later, I could see my scalp through the hair. It has only continued to get worse. I recently found this forum and others that show hair loss can happen with this drug.
I've read a couple posts that seem to imply that the name brand does NOT cause hair loss, but the generic does.
Has anyone experienced a difference in side effects with bupropion, as opposed to Wellbutrin? If others have noticed hair loss with bupropion, but not with Wellbutrin, I will try the name brand. If no difference, I getting off this completely.
Any other side effects that differ between the two?
