Butrin 75mg Tablet

Butrin 75mg Tablet, made by Genetics Pharmaceuticals, is an antidepressant and smoking-cessation aid. Its active ingredient is Bupropion 75mg, and it is used for depression and stopping smoking. Pack size: 20 tablets.

Uses of Butrin 75mg Tablet

Butrin 75mg Tablet is used to treat depression in adults and to help people stop smoking. When used for smoking, it reduces cravings and nicotine withdrawal symptoms and works best alongside counselling or a support programme. For depression, it often takes a few weeks before mood, energy and interest in daily life start to improve, so it is important to keep taking it as prescribed.

How Butrin 75mg Tablet works

Bupropion increases the activity of two brain chemicals, dopamine and noradrenaline, by slowing their reabsorption into nerve cells. This can lift mood and energy in depression. It also appears to dampen the reward and withdrawal effects linked to nicotine, making it easier to stay off cigarettes.

Possible side effects

Like all medicines, Butrin 75mg Tablet can cause side effects, especially in the first few weeks. Common ones include:

• Difficulty sleeping
• Dry mouth
• Headache
• Nausea
• Feeling restless or anxious
• Loss of appetite

Get urgent medical help if you have a seizure (fit), a severe allergic reaction or rash, or any thoughts of harming yourself. Also tell your doctor quickly about unusual changes in mood or behaviour.

Precautions and warnings

• Butrin 75mg Tablet can lower the seizure threshold, so tell your doctor if you have epilepsy, a past head injury, a brain tumour, or an eating disorder such as bulimia or anorexia.
• Let your doctor know if you have bipolar disorder, liver or kidney disease, or high blood pressure, and about all other medicines you take, including other antidepressants, MAOIs and tamoxifen.
• Keep alcohol to a minimum, and do not suddenly stop alcohol or sedative medicines while taking it, as this raises the risk of fits.
• Do not stop taking it suddenly without talking to your doctor, and do not drive until you know how it affects you.
• If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor before using it.

Storage

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep it in the original pack until use. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.
