Bupropion SR
Generic alternative to Wellbutrin SR
Bupropion SR is a medication prescribed for the treatment of major depressive disorder and for smoking cessation assistance. It's an extended-release formulation that provides a steady level of medication in the body throughout the day. The active ingredient, bupropion hydrochloride, belongs to a class of drugs known as antidepressants. It works by inhibiting the reuptake of norepinephrine and dopamine, which can help to elevate mood and reduce nicotine cravings.
How is this medication used?
Bupropion SR is usually taken once a day in the morning. The tablet should be swallowed whole, not crushed, chewed, or split, to ensure the medication is released slowly in the body. Dosage varies based on individual health needs and medical history. It's important to follow the prescribing healthcare provider's instructions closely.
What are the possible side effects?
Common side effects of Bupropion SR include dry mouth, headache, insomnia, and nausea. Some people may also experience increased sweating, muscle pain, ringing in the ears, or weight changes. Rare, but more serious side effects can include seizures, changes in mood or behavior, and high blood pressure. It's important to contact a healthcare provider if side effects are severe or persistent.
What are the potential interactions?
Bupropion SR can interact with a wide range of medications including MAO inhibitors, other antidepressants, antipsychotics, beta-blockers, and certain heart medications. It can also interact with alcohol, leading to an increased risk of seizures. Patients should discuss all medications, supplements, and substances they are taking with their healthcare provider to avoid potential interactions.
