The nutritive substance may comprise a protein source such as bovine collagen. The cofactor may comprise a chromium or selenium salt. In various embodiments, the compositions herein are provided in an oral capsule dosage form for GI-tract administration of the AAI. A method of suppressing appetite in individuals in need thereof are described.

This disclosure relates to dosage forms comprising bupropion hydrochloride, another salt form of bupropion, or the free base form of bupropion; dextromethorphan hydrobromide, another salt form of dextromethorphan, or the free base form of dextromethorphan, and a polymer. In some embodiments, the dosage form has no significant dose dumping of bupropion in the presence of ethanol in vitro. In some embodiments, the dosage form does not have a food effect for bupropion or dextromethorphan when taken with a high-fat meal in human subjects.
