Bupropion, Wellbutrin or Zyban are antidepressants and they apparently modify the dopomene levels.

Interesting that you brought this up as my wife is also taking Bupropion along with the Chantix and I guess it helps her deal with any negative thoughts because I thought that quitting would make her irritable and moody but she seems to be in the best mental state that I have seen her in since we've been married.

Life is Good
