| start =
* '''Day 7:''' stop administration of vortioxetine and simultaneously start administration of bupropion in a dosage of 150 mg/day.
* '''Day 14:''' stop administration of vortioxetine and continue administration of bupropion.
| info =
* Bupropion is a strong inhibitor of CYP2D6, which metabolizes vortioxetine. Combination of vortioxetine and bupropion can lead to adverse effects of vortioxetine.
* Vortioxetine has a biological half-life of 66 hours. Reduction to the lowest effective dose of vortioxetine probably prevents adverse effects of vortioxetine due to lower blood levels of vortioxetine.
