Posology
_Use in Adults_
The recommended starting dose is 150 mg, given once daily. An optimal
dose was not established in
clinical studies. If no improvement is seen after 4 weeks treatment at
150 mg
,
the dose may be
increased to 300 mg, given once daily. There should be an interval of
at least 24 hours between
successive doses.
The onset of action for bupropion has been noted 14 days after
starting therapy. As with all
antidepressants the full antidepressant effect of Bupropion Bluefish
may not be evident until after
several weeks of treatment.
Patients with depression should be treated for a sufficient period of
at least 6 months to ensure that
they are free from symptoms.
Insomnia is a very common adverse event which is often transient.
Insomnia may be reduced by
avoiding dosing at bedtime (provided there is at least 24 hours
between doses).
