medication

The researchers of this paper attempted to determine if seizure risk increased when receiving rTMS and taking an antidepressant called bupropion (Wellbutrin). Researchers found that while rTMS-induced seizures are uncommon and may be linked to factors like sleep deprivation, taking multiple medications, or pre-existing neurological conditions, the review found no cases of rTMS-induced seizures in patients taking bupropion alone. This suggests that taking bupropion should not be considered a reason to avoid rTMS treatment.
