Have you ever caught yourself on a thought that sometimes we are deeply interested in how certain things work and sometimes we are absolutely indifferent to the basic principles of other things’ functioning?
For example, when buying a new TV set in the store, most people will not be interested in principles of TV signals transmission and methods of their interpretation by TV set – here we just want a device to entertain us and show our favorite films or football matches. I would say that buying a TV set (as well as most of other consumer goods) we just buy a final result itself.
The situation is absolutely different with medications. Buying a drug or consulting a doctor on the available treatment options to cure any disease or disorder in our organism, we are highly interested in the actual mechanism of drug’s influence on our body. Sometimes the list of side effects may become the crucial point in choosing this pill or that .
I think that such situation can be easily explained – medications are things that we put inside of our organisms and they affect our organs and systems; when they do something wrong, we cannot throw them away like a broken TV set.
Let us take Zyban for example. This drug with a medical name bupropion hydrochloride is a FDA approved prescription medication to help people quit smoking. Its effectiveness is approved by multiple clinical tests and for those, who want a quick answer for the question: “Does Zyban work?” I would say: “Yes, it does. Zyban really helps people quit smoking habit”.
Below I will try to satisfy the curiosity of other readers – those, who want to know the answer for another question: “How does Zyban work?”
The first fact I would like to underline is that people have not yet cleared out the basic reasons and mechanism of smoking as the nicotine addiction. That is why the full explanation of Zyban role in fighting with the most dangerous bad habit is currently under the scope of deep scientific research: -(
Meanwhile, Zyban really helps people quit smoking and scientists consider it to be due to the nature of Zyban as an antidepressant. It helps people overcome the cravings and smoking withdrawal symptoms: irritability, frustration, anxiety, anger and depression, which are often the main reasons to restart smoking.
Zyban helps overcome such conditions, setting balance in certain substances in human brain, which are responsible for addiction process. These substances are dopamine and norepinephrine. Affecting them, Zyban reduces the nicotine addiction as well as the cravings and withdrawal symptoms.
Undoubtedly, Zyban is the progressive option to treat nicotine addiction, but it won’t help without strong will and firm decision of smoker himself. One should make a personal choice to walk on the road of quitting smoking and Zyban only helps make this road shorter and easier to walk.
