The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is formed from bupropion by the liver enzyme CYP2B6 during first-pass metabolism.
- With oral bupropion treatment, hydroxybupropion is present in plasma at area under the curve concentrations that are as many as 16 to 20 times greater than those of bupropion itself, demonstrating extensive conversion of bupropion into hydroxybupropion in humans.
- As such, hydroxybupropion is likely to play a very important role in the effects of oral bupropion, which could accurately be thought of as functioning largely as a prodrug to hydroxybupropion.
