It is an anti-depressant that limits the desire to smoke. ?It's not a cure-all pop a pill and you never want to smoke again kind of thing. ?You also have to actively wish to quit. ?Wellbutrin will help you cut down naturally and can limit withdrawal symptoms (like increased appetite), but you have to do the rest.


I am taking Wellbutrin for depression, with no desire to quite smoking. ?I have had to cut back to a few a day usually not finishing an entire one most the time. ?Wellbutrin can cause taste changes which are a large part of smoking not being as desirable.
