How is Wellbutrin different from Zyban?
Zyban is a nicotine-free aid to help a person to stop smoking. Instead of nicotine, it contains the same active ingredient as found in the antidepressant medication Wellbutrin. It works by boosting the levels of several chemical messengers in the brain. When more of these chemicals are at work, the patient should experience a reduction in nicotine withdrawal symptoms and a definite weakening of the urge to smoke. Importantly, before you buy Wellbutrin, be sure to speak to a doctor about any drugs you may be taking (how they will interact with Wellbutrin) as well as any past medical conditions or family health history that may help him/her determine whether or not Wellbutrin is right for you.
