Patient summary
Bupropion 150mg and 300mg modified-release tablets, used in the management of major depression and tobacco dependence. An aminoketone antidepressant.
Mechanism of action
This medicine acts as a norepinephrine and dopamine reuptake inhibitor. By increasing the levels of these neurotransmitters in the brain, it helps regulate mood and reduces the withdrawal symptoms associated with nicotine cessation.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Pregnancy: Use only if the potential benefit justifies the risk to the fetus. Breastfeeding: Avoid during treatment as it is excreted in human milk.
Wellbutrin contains bupropion, an aminoketone antidepressant. It comes as modified-release tablets in 150 mg and 300 mg strengths. It is used for major depressive disorder and tobacco dependence. GlaxoSmithKline is the originator company, and Zyban is another name for bupropion.
It acts as a norepinephrine and dopamine reuptake inhibitor. Onset is usually 1–2 weeks, with a duration of 24 hours. Seizure risk is the main concern, so the dose is increased gradually; it is contraindicated in seizure disorder, current or prior diagnosis of bulimia or anorexia nervosa, abrupt withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines, and use of monoamine oxidase inhibitors. Seizures, hypertension and hypersensitivity reactions need immediate medical attention, and mood or behaviour changes should be monitored. Interactions include citalopram, tamoxifen and theophylline; alcohol also interacts.
