| Uses |
| | |
| | Zyban is used to help you
quit smoking.
| | | |
| 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 as directed, usually
twice daily for 7 to 12 weeks. Do not take more or less Zyban than prescribed.
Since this drug 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 this
drug, until it reaches higher levels in your blood. Do not smoke if using any
nicotine products with this drug. Too much nicotine can cause serious side effects.

| 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. |
| | |
| Precautions |
| | |
| | Before taking Zyban 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 this drug. Tell your doctor if
you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant before taking this drug. This drug
is excreted into breast milk. Because of the potential risk to the infant, breast-feeding
while using this drug is not recommended. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding. |

furazolidone), levodopa, theophylline, corticosteroids (e.g., prednisone), seizure
