What is Bupropion? Bupropion hydrochloride is an antidepressant of the aminoketone class with distinctive pharmacologic properties. It blocks the reuptake of norepinephrine and dopamine without significant effect at serotonin receptors. Its structure closely resembles that of the stimulant diethylpropion, and is related to phenylethylamines. Bupropion Sustained-Release is indicated for the treatment of major depressive disorder and smoking cessation. Sometimes it is prescribed for weight loss and bipolar depression. Also, bupropion is frequently used to augment the efficacy and lessen the side effects of other antidepressants. Most noteworthy about bupropion is the absence of weight gain, daytime drowsiness, sexual disturbances, and anticholinergic action. Evidence shows that other than the rare incident of seizures, bupropion causes no serious adverse reactions or clinical laboratory changes.
