Used For

Depression

How it works

Bupropion is a selective inhibitor of the neuronal re-uptake of catecholamines (noradrenaline and dopamine) with minimal effect on the re-uptake of indolamines (serotonin) and does not inhibit either monoamine oxidase. The mechanism of action of bupropion as an antidepressant is unknown. However, it is presumed that this action is mediated by noradrenergic and/or dopaminergic mechanisms.
