Background: Bupropion hydrochloride is used frequently in the treatment of depression and in smoking cessation therapy.

Methods: We report a case of bupropion hydrochloride induced serum sickness-like reaction.

Results: There was complete resolution of symptoms on discontinuing bupropion and instituting therapy with prednisone and antihistamines.

Conclusion: This case is seemingly the first report of a serum sickness-like reaction to bupropion hydrochloride.
