We report on three males with prominent apathy as part of the symptom complex of depression or organic brain disease. Significant clinical responses were observed following treatment with bupropion, an antidepressant with dopamine (DA) reuptake activity. We present clinical evidence in support of the hypothesis that remission in these patients occurred as a consequence of bupropion-induced increases in central DA neurotransmission.
