Phenytoin Bupropion

Because bupropion is extensively metabolized, the coadministration of other drugs may affect its clinical activity. In particular, certain drugs may induce the metabolism of bupropion (eg, carbamazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin) while other drugs may inhibit the metabolism of bupropion (eg, cimetidine, ritonavir).

Carbamazepine decreases bupropion levels and increases the levels of its active metabolite hydroxybupropion. Phenobarbital and phenytoin are predicted to interact similar. The concurrent use of bupropion and valproate has led to increased levels of valproate and hydroxybupropion, and hallucinations have been reported in patients taking both drugs. Hypomania has been reported in a patient taking bupropion and lamotiigine.
