What is Bupropion for?

Bupropion belongs to a class of medications called norepinephrine–dopamine reuptake inhibitors (NDRIs). This type of medication works by inhibiting the reuptake of certain types of neurotransmitters so as to prolong their action in the brain. It is used to treat major depression, and as an aid to smoking cessation treatment.
