A Comparison of Sustained and Extended Release Bupropion Following Bariatric Surgery
This study is being conducted to evaluate how the body absorbs and processes the sustained release (SR) and extended release (XL) medication bupropion (Wellbutrin®). Subject who are 1-3 years post gastric bypass surgery will be invited to participate. Non-surgical controls will also be enrolled based on a matching criteria to post gastric bypass subjects. Participants will be asked to complete two 12-hour study days approximately 11 days apart.

Conditions
- Roux en Y Gastric Bypass
Interventions
- Bupropion SR and XL
Primary outcomes
- Bupropion Plasma Concentrations/Area-Under-the-Curve (AUC) — 48 hours intervals
The primary aim of this research is to provide a comparison of pharmacokinetic measures associated with a single dose of bupropion SR (sustained release) and bupropion XL (extended release) in Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass and matched nonsurgical "control" subjects. Comparisons will be based upon bupropion plasma concentrations obtained during the 48 hour sample collection window.
