The following information is intended to supplement,
not substitute for, the expertise and judgment of your physician, pharmacist
or other healthcare professional. It should not be construed to indicate that
use of the drug is safe, appropriate, or effective for you. Please consult your
healthcare professional before using this or any other prescription or
non-prescription medication.
Zyban Directions
Swallow Zyban whole. Do not crush or chew them or the sustained
activity of the drug will be destroyed and the chances of side
effects occurring may be increased. Take Zyban as directed,
usually twice daily for 7 to 12 weeks. Do not take more or less
Zyban than prescribed. Since Zyban can cause sleeplessness at
first, it is best not to take near bedtime. It is advised to
continue smoking for the first week after starting Zyban, until
it reaches higher levels in your blood. Do not smoke if using any
nicotine products with Zyban. Too much nicotine can cause serious
side effects.
Zyban Side Effects
Zyban is generally well tolerated. Dry mouth, headache,
increased sweating, constipation, anxiety and fatigue may occur.
If these effects persist or worsen, notify your
doctor.
Zyban Precautions
Before taking bupropion tell your doctor if you have a history
of seizures, head injury, brain tumor; heart, liver or kidney
disease, an eating disorder or any mental conditions, diabetes or
if you have any allergies. Limit or avoid consumption of
alcoholic beverages; alcohol can increase your risk of seizures.
Chronic alcohol users who suddenly stop the intake of alcohol
while taking bupropion may increase the risk of having seizures.
Suddenly stopping certain tranquilizers (e.g., diazepam,
chlordiazepoxide) is not recommended because doing so may
increase the risk of having seizures. Elderly patients may be
more sensitive to the effects of Zyban. Tell your doctor if you
are pregnant or plan to become pregnant before taking Zyban.
Zyban is excreted into breast milk. Because of the potential risk
to the infant, breast-feeding while using Zyban is not
recommended. Consult your doctor before
breast-feeding.
Drug Interactions with Zyban
Before taking bupropion tell your doctor of all nonprescription
and prescription medications you may use especially MAO
inhibitors (e.g., isocarboxazid, phenelzine, tranylcypromine,
pargyline, selegiline, furazolidone), levodopa, theophylline,
corticosteroids (e.g., prednisone), seizure medications,
sedatives, ritonavir, tranquilizers/psychiatric drugs (e.g.,
chlorpromazine), other antidepressants (e.g., amitriptyline),
salicylates (e.g., aspirin, salsalate), isoniazid,
chlolinesterase inhibitors (e.g., tacrine, donepezil), morphine,
and adrenaline-like drugs (e.g., pseudoephedrine). Excess
caffeine intake can increase the chance of seizures with Zyban.
Check all nonprescription/prescription drug labels for caffeine.
Consult doctor or pharmacist. A certain product used to help quit
smoking contains bupropion. Do not take that product while using
Zyban.
Missed Dose of Zyban
Take any missed dose of Zyban as soon as possible but not if it
is within 8 hours of the next dose. If it is time for the next
dose, skip the missed dose and resume your regular schedule. Do
not "double up" the dose of Zyban.
Zyban Notes
Do not allow anyone else to take Zyban.
