Hello,
Bupropion is not approved for depression in the UK. It is licensed for smoking cessation but is rarely prescribed at all because it has received a lot of bad publicity over here. The CSM (a government organisation) has specifically recommended that it should never be combined with antidepressants.
At the moment I take citalopram (Celexa/Cipramil). I'd like to combine it with bupropion (Zyban) as is common in other countries.
Has anyone in the UK ever been prescribed Zyban for a mental health problem?
