Consumer:

The use of bupropion is associated with weight alterations. Both weight gain and weight loss may occur, although the latter is much more common. The incidence of weight loss greater than 5 pounds is approximately 28%, which may be undesirable in patients suffering from anorexia, malnutrition or excessive weight loss. Weight change should be monitored during therapy if bupropion is used in these patients.
