Does Wellbutrin work for smoking cessation?
Depends on what you read and whom you believe. Doctors and
manufacturers of pharmaceutical products always rave about the positives of
medications, but in reality, a fair number of drugs are junk or dangerous.
For depression, Wellbutrin starts to work after several weeks. For smoking cessation one has to take the drug for at least 4-6 weeks before the urge to quit smoking develops. Wellbutrin should only be taken as directed. If you miss a dose of Wellbutrin, one should never double dose the next time. This only increases side effects. Generic wellbutrin is available but I can tell you one fact-it does not work for smoking cessation. The majority of people who have tried to quit smoking while taking wellbutrin, relapse. So stop wasting your money on this product. However, it does work for mild depression
