Bupropion and dextromethorphan combination is a novel investigational medication under study for the treatment of major depressive disorder and other neuropsychiatric conditions. Bupropion is an atypical antidepressant and dopamine-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor, while dextromethorphan is an NMDA receptor antagonist and sigma-1 receptor agonist with potential antidepressant effects. The formulation is currently not broadly approved for therapeutic use.
