Zyban® and Wellbutrin® are both brand names for the drug bupropion hydrochloride. You must see a doctor for a prescription, as bupropion is not sold over-the-counter. Be sure to discuss the pros and cons of using bupropion to help you quit smoking with your physician before deciding whether it's a good choice for you.

Please note: Zyban is not be prescribed for people under the age of 18.
