Yes, the two are: Often prescribed together in doses not to exceed 300 mg per day. Do not stop her zoloft (sertraline) without contacting your treating physician. You may find that the zoloft (sertraline) suddenly starts working when the wellbutrin is added in. This is a common combination in which two antidepressants are used together to achieve remission from depression. In your case, you are using bupropion for a different purpose but you may be able to kill two birds with one stone by staying on both.Best wishes and congratulations on your decision to quit smoking.

It is important to consult with your Psychiatrist who knows your medical history about your medications. If you are not confident in your Doctor please see another for a second opinion.
