Inc. | | Drug interactions | Relatively few data are available on interactions of bupropion hydrochloride with other drugs. Increased adverse experiences were reported when the drug was administered concomitantly with l-dopa. MAOIs may increase the acute toxicity of bupropion.
Although bupropion is not metabolized by the CYP2D6 enzyme, the drug and its metabolite, morpholinol, inhibit this enzyme in vitro. Therefore, extreme caution should be exercised when coadministering any drug metabolized by that enzyme, and initial dosage of the drug should be as low as possible. | | Uses | Bupropion hydrochloride is indicated for the treatment of MDD. Bupropion hydrochloride SR (Zyban) is indicated as an aid to smoking cessation treatment. | | Brand name | Wellbutrin (GlaxoSmithKline); Zyban
(GlaxoSmithKline). | | Therapeutic Function | Antidepressant; Smoking cessation aid | | Biological Activity | Non-selective inhibitor of dopamine and noradrenalin transporters (K i values are 1.4, 2.8 and 45 μ M for NET, DAT and SERT transporters respectively). Also inhibits neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. Displays antidepressant activity and augments nicotine self-administration at low doses in vivo . | | Side effects | Bupropion hydrochloride can cause serious side effects. The most common side effects of Bupropion hydrochloride include:
headache
dizziness
dry mouth
sore throat
nausea
constipation
trouble sleeping | | Mode of action | The exact mechanism of the antidepressant action of bupropion is not known, but is presumed to be related to noradrenergic and/or dopaminergic mechanisms. Bupropion is a relatively weak inhibitor of the neuronal reuptake of norepinephrine and dopamine, and does not inhibit the reuptake of serotonin. Bupropion does not inhibit monoamine oxidase. |
