Chỉ số theo dõi
Monitor blood pressure (at baseline and periodically); renal and hepatic function (at baseline and as clinically indicated); body weight. Closely monitor for signs of suicidal ideation and behavioural changes during initiation and dose adjustment.
Quá liều
Symptoms: Drowsiness, hallucinations, mental status changes, loss of consciousness, ECG changes (e.g. conduction disturbance [including QRS prolongation], arrythmia, tachycardia); clonus, myoclonus, hyperreflexia, seizure and serotonin syndrome. Management: Supportive treatment. Secure adequate airway, ventilation and oxygenation. Use of activated charcoal is recommended. Monitor ECG and vital signs.
Tương tác
Increased risk of seizures with drugs that lower seizure threshold (e.g. antipsychotics, antidepressants, antimalarials, quinolones, systemic corticosteroids, sedating antihistamines, tramadol, theophylline, anorexiants, hypoglycaemic drugs). May reduce the clinical efficacy of prodrugs that are CYP2D6-dependent for metabolic activation (e.g. tamoxifen). Increased serum concentration with CYP2B6 inhibitors (e.g. ticlopidine, clopidogrel). Enhanced metabolism and decreased exposure with CYP2B6 inducers (e.g. ritonavir, lopinavir, efavirenz), carbamazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin. May increase the exposure of CYP2D6 substrates including certain antidepressants (e.g. venlafaxine, fluoxetine, sertraline), antipsychotics (e.g. haloperidol, risperidone, thioridazine), β-blockers (e.g. metoprolol), type 1C antiarrhythmics (e.g. propafenone, flecainide). Increased risk of CNS toxicity with levodopa and amantadine. May decrease the plasma levels of digoxin.
Potentially Fatal: Increased risk of hypertensive reactions with MAOIs. Increased risk of serotonin syndrome with SSRIs and SNRIs.
Tương tác với thức ăn
Concurrent consumption of alcohol may cause adverse neuropsychiatric events or reduced alcohol tolerance.

May interfere with urine immunoassay screening tests for amphetamine or methamphetamine which may lead to false-positive results.
Tác dụng
Description:
Mechanism of Action: Bupropion is an aminoketone-derivative antidepressant. Its exact mechanism of action has not been fully understood; however, it is known to inhibit the neuronal uptake of norepinephrine and dopamine with minimal effect on the serotonin reuptake. Presumably, the noradrenergic and/or dopaminergic effects are involved in smoking cessation.
Onset: Depression: Within 1-2 weeks.
Duration: 1-2 days.
Pharmacokinetics:
Absorption: Well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Time to peak plasma concentration: Bupropion: Within 2 hours (conventional tab); within 3 hours (12-hour extended-release [sustained-release] or modified-release tab); approx 2.5-3 hours (prolonged-release tab); approx 5 hours (24-hour extended-release tab). Hydroxybupropion: Approx 3 hours (conventional tab); approx 6-7 hours (extended-release tab).
Distribution: Widely distributed. Crosses the placenta and enters breast milk. Volume of distribution: Approx 2,000 L. Plasma protein binding: 84% (bupropion); 77% (hydroxybupropion).
Metabolism: Extensively metabolised in the liver primarily by CYP2B6 isoenzyme into hydroxybupropion (major active metabolite) and via reduction forming threohydrobupropion and erythrohydrobupropion (active metabolites); may undergo extensive first-pass metabolism.
Excretion: Mainly via urine (approx 87%, mainly as metabolites; <1% as unchanged drug); faeces (approx 10%, mainly as metabolites). Terminal plasma half-life: Bupropion: Approx 14 hours (single dose); approx 21 hours (multiple doses).
