How does Bupropion (Wellbutrin SR, Zyban) work?
Generic Wellbutrin’s work is related to two brain chemicals named norepinephrine and dopamine; it exerts its effect on the levels of these chemicals. FDA first gave approval for Bupropion as a drug to treat depression, but when it also showed positive effects on smokers, a second approval was given as a smoking-cessation treatment. It has been in news for both good and bad reasons and you will find many people discussing the merits and demerits (which are few) in forums and chats.
