Can wellbutrin (bupropion) help with obsessive thoughts?
7 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
In general, not...: Wellbutrin (bupropion) is not typically the first drug that comes to mind when we think of treating obsessional thoughts. There may be a rare person who finds it helpful for this, but most of the time, it is not used for this.

Wellbutrin (bupropion): Not likely, unless rumination is part of the Depression.
