Auvelity active ingredients?

See the DrugPatentWatch profile for Auvelity

What are Auvelity’s active ingredients?

Auvelity is a prescription antidepressant that combines two active ingredients: dextromethorphan and bupropion [1].

How do the ingredients work together?

Auvelity pairs:
- Dextromethorphan, which is an NMDA receptor antagonist [1].
- Bupropion, which is a norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitor (NDRI) [1].

What are patients typically asking about these ingredients?

People often want to know whether Auvelity contains the same drugs as other products. Because it is a fixed-dose combination of dextromethorphan plus bupropion, it overlaps with both:
- Dextromethorphan products (a common ingredient in cough medicines) and
- Bupropion products (sold separately as antidepressants and for smoking cessation) [1].
