Why is Zyban prescribed?

Bupropion (Zyban) is prescribed alone or in combination with another medication, for the management of certain neurologic disorders such as anxiety and depression. It is also being used for the treatment of smoking cessation which can decrease risk of having heart attacks and lung diseases.

What does it do?

Bupropion, classified as an aminoketone, is an antidepressant agent, primarily works by blocking the reuptake of certain neurotransmitters such as Norepinephrine, Serotonin and Dopamine; thus, helping the restoration of the balance of chemicals in the brain and improving the patient’s condition.

How should I take it?

Zyban is currently available as a 150mg tablet. Each tablet should be taken as a whole (do not split) by mouth with or without food.

The dosage strength depends on every patient’s condition and the doctor’s prescription. It is imperative that you do not self-medicate and only take this drug after consulting with your doctor or pharmacist to determine the best dosage and dosing schedule for the treatment of your condition.

What if I missed a dose?

The desired effects of prescribed medications will only be achieved if taken properly. As much as possible, strictly follow your doctor’s prescribed dosing schedule. However, if you miss a dose, take it immediately and adjust the time of your next dose depending on your doctor’s advice. Never take two doses at the same time just to make up for your missed dose.

What are the special precautions before taking Zyban?

Before taking Bupropion, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any allergies to food or to the drug itself as it may contain several inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or problems.

Inform your doctor about your past and current medical history especially if you have or have had brain tumor, head injury, arteriovenous malformation, anorexia, diabetes, liver disease, heart disease, cirrhosis, bipolar disorder, suicidal tendencies and closed-angle glaucoma.

Avoid drinking alcohol as this may cause dizziness or drowsiness which can add to the effects of Bupropion.

Consult your doctor regarding all the other medications you use before getting surgery.
