Zyban apparently uses the same chemical, Bupropion, as Wellbutrin to try and help reduce the craving of smoking. I don't know if your doctor can think of anything else which is safe to take along with Bupropion.

They didn't have any of these aids when I quit. I know it is one of the hardest things to do but you will be happier and definitely healthier! Keep at it, it does get easier with time. Let us know if you have beat it.
