Drug Details
Bupropion is a medication commonly prescribed to treat depression and seasonal affective disorder (SAD). It is available in both short-acting and long-acting tablet forms, with the latter taken once daily. This atypical antidepressant is believed to work by increasing the levels of norepinephrine and dopamine in the brain, which helps to enhance mood and alleviate depression. One of the notable benefits of bupropion is that it generally has fewer sexual side effects compared to other antidepressants. However, it is not recommended for individuals with a history of seizures, eating disorders, or those who consume alcohol regularly. As always, consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice and before starting any new medication.
