Zyban® Lawsuit | Zyban Lawyer | Zyban Side Effects | Zyban Liver Damage

Manufacturer: GlaxoSmithKline Uses: The first nicotine-free pill that can allegedly help you stop smoking.

zyban Zyban, also known as Bupropion Hydrochloride, is a nicotine-free drug intended to aid in the battle to quit smoking. As opposed to most methods, Zyban works by targeting the site of nicotine addiction in the brain. It alters dopamine and noradrenaline, two naturally occurring neurotransmitters believed to play a key role in nicotine addiction and thus minimizes the cravings and withdrawal symptoms that result from quitting smoking. Major clinical studies have shown Zyban to be significantly more effective than the nicotine patch.

However, there is some concern that Zyban may adversely affect the liver. If you have experienced serious side effects associated with Zyban, please see your doctor and contact us about your legal rights. Please keep in mind that there may be time limits within which you may take action so never delay in asking questions.
