The most common side effects of bupropion are: 1  nervousness. 2  constipation. 3  trouble sleeping. 4  dry mouth. 5  headache. 6  nausea. 7  vomiting. 8  and shakiness (tremor)
Buproprion's manufacturer sells the drug under a third name, as well: Zyban, a drug marketed to help people quit smoking. The medication is available in immediate release (75 and 100 mg tablets) and sustained release (100 and 150 mg) formulas (sold as Wellbutrin SRÂ®). It's not clear why Wellbutrin works to reduce depressive symptoms. Chemically, it's not related to any other major antidepressant.
