Brief Answer:
No. It's a different molecule.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I understand your concern.
Wellbutrin contains Buripion. This is totally a different salt and has no relation in formulation with Sulpha group or Vicodin.
So you can use it if has been advised by your doctor.
In case you get any reaction with it too, you are allergic to Bupripion altogether with Sulpha and Vicodin.
I hope it helps you.
If you have any further query, please ask me.
Stay Healthy.
