Has anyone had success with Bupropion SR 150mg for quitting smoking and/or managing depression?

I've been prescribed Bupropion SR 150mg Tablets (12 H) to help me quit smoking and manage my depression. I've heard mixed reviews about its effectiveness and side effects. Has anyone here had experience with this medication? I'd love to hear about your journey, any tips you might have, and how you handled any side effects. I'm specifically interested in hearing from folks who have used it for both smoking cessation and depression. Any insights would be greatly appreciated! Please share your stories, good or bad, so I know what to expect.

To give some context, I've tried other methods to quit smoking and manage my depression, but nothing has worked so far. I'm hoping this medication will be the solution I've been looking for. Thank you in advance for your help!

Be prepared for some weird dreams. That's the side effect that got to me the most.

I've been on Bupropion SR for a year now, and it's been amazing for my depression. I had a few side effects at the start, but they went away after a few weeks. I've also managed to quit smoking, so it's been a win-win for me!

I had some pretty bad side effects when I started, but they faded after a few weeks. It's been a good experience overall for me.

I didn't have much luck with it. The side effects were too much for me to handle. Good luck, though!

I'm all for anything that can help with smoking cessation, but it's not a magic pill. It’s good for some, not everyone. But hey, if it helps, it's worth it!

I'm on my second round of this medication. First time around, it wasn't enough for me. This time I'm adding some therapy and it seems to be doing the trick. Just know that it might take a bit of tweaking!
