Bupropion may precipitate or aggravate psychotic symptoms, including delusions, hallucinations, confusion, and paranoia. Depressed patients, usually those with bipolar disorder, may experience a switch from depression to mania or hypomania. Patients with psychotic disorders should be monitored for exacerbation of symptoms during bupropion therapy, and the dosing reduced or discontinued and/or additional medications (e.g., tranquilizers) administered as necessary.
