Zyban is a prescription medication primarily used as an aid to quit smoking. It can decrease your nicotine withdrawal symptoms (such as irritability, anxiety, restlessness) and your urge to smoke. Quitting smoking decreases your risk of heart and lung disease, as well as cancer. In addition, it is an antidepressant medication that may also be used to treat depression, seasonal affective disorder, and other mental/mood disorders.
Zyban contains the active ingredient bupropion, which is an antidepressant medication that affects the levels of certain neurotransmitters in the brain. These neurotransmitters, including dopamine and norepinephrine, are involved in regulating feelings of reward, pleasure, and mood, as well as addiction and cravings. By increasing the levels of these neurotransmitters, Zyban may help to reduce the cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with quitting smoking. Additionally, Zyban may help to decrease the reinforcing effects of nicotine on the brain, making it easier to quit smoking.
To quit smoking, Zyban tablets should be taken orally with or without food twice a day, as directed by your doctor. The tablets should be swallowed whole and should not be crushed or chewed as doing so may release all the drug at once, increasing the risk of side effects. If you experience stomach upset, taking the medication with food may help.
Start taking bupropion at least 1 week before your planned quit date, so that the drug can reach a high enough level in your blood. You should set a date for quitting and stop smoking sometime in the second week of taking the drug. To decrease your risk of seizure, take your doses at least 8 hours apart or as directed by your doctor. You should not take your evening dose too close to bedtime as it may cause trouble sleeping.
The dosage of Zyban is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. To limit side effects, your dose may be slowly increased, and you should not take more or less medication or take it more frequently than prescribed. Taking more than the recommended dose of bupropion may increase your risk of having a seizure. To get the most benefit from Zyban, use it regularly and at the same time each day.
