Frequently Asked Questions
  1. Q: How is Bupropion different from other antidepressants?

A: Bupropion works on dopamine and norepinephrine rather than serotonin. It typically causes less sexual dysfunction, weight gain, and sedation compared to SSRIs.

  1. Q: Can I take Bupropion with other antidepressants?

A: Sometimes Bupropion is combined with SSRIs under medical supervision, but this should only be done with careful monitoring and as prescribed by your healthcare provider.

  1. Q: Why can’t I break or crush the tablets?

A: Many forms of Bupropion are extended-release formulations. Breaking or crushing them can release too much medication at once, increasing the risk of side effects including seizures.

  1. Q: How long does it take to help with depression?

A: Most people begin to notice improvements in energy within 1-2 weeks, but full antidepressant effects typically take 4-6 weeks.

  1. Q: Can I drink alcohol while taking Bupropion?

A: Alcohol should be avoided or strictly limited as it can increase the risk of seizures and other adverse effects when combined with Bupropion.
