Drug Uses

Bupropion is used for treating depression. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

How to use

Use Bupropion as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.
Bupropion comes with an extra patient information sheet called a Medication Guide. Read it carefully. Read it again each time you get Bupropion refilled.
Take Bupropion by mouth with or without food. If stomach upset occurs, take with food to reduce stomach irritation.
Several weeks may pass before your symptoms improve. Do not stop taking Bupropion without checking with your doctor.
Take your doses at the same times each day at least 6 hours apart unless directed otherwise by your doctor. This may help to decrease the risk of seizures with Bupropion.
Continue to take Bupropion even if you feel well. Do not miss any doses.
