BUPROPION MAY CAUSE SUICIDAL THINKING AND BEHAVIOR AND OTHER SERIOUS SIDE EFFECTS
Bupropion may cause psychiatric disorders, including suicidal thinking and behavior, hallucinations, confusion, paranoia, irrational fears and manic episodes (for people with undiagnosed bipolar disorder). The medicine could also cause high blood pressure, fast, irregular heart beats, seizures, acute angle-closure glaucoma, and death. You should not stop taking bupropion abruptly or without consulting your healthcare provider.

Antidepressants, including bupropion, may increase the risk of suicidal thinking and behavior in children, adolescents, and young adults.
Bupropion is not approved for use in pediatric patients.
Use with caution if you have a history of psychiatric disorders, as it may worsen pre-existing conditions.
Avoid operating heavy machinery or driving until you know how bupropion affects you.
