Bupropion (Wellbutrin) as a nootropic?

Original post in this thread

coralto · 9 points

I was doing some research, and it turns out that Wellbutrin, which is commonly prescribed as an anti-depressant and as a quit-smoking aid, is actually considered substituted phenethylamine (notice anything else on that list?). It's not an SSRI or anything in that class, instead it works through norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibition. Essentially it should increase the amount of dopamine in your system. Off-label it's been used for ADHD, sexual dysfunction, even weight loss. It's safe except for a slight increase of the chance of seizure.

weird, i do a few sports (intense weightlifting, table tennis, sprinting) and check heartrate (usually around 60 resting) and blood pressure regularly.

Perhaps it's isolated. Do you ever have any weird cardiovascular issues while on it?
