I just started on my first day of Chantix. I've heard about alot of side effects relating to taking this. Does anyone have any experience taking it. Been smoking for 15 years and figured its time to quit.

Chantix worked for me for months. Wanna take it with food, otherwise you'll hurt like hell! Dreams are weird but, the rest some claim never happened with me.

Been smoking since I was 16 and just quit this past Jan 1st at 34. Just have the want to quit and you can do it. I just quit cold turkey and said it was enough. Now I just need to lose this weight I gained. Good luck man.

Congrats, Barrett. The reason I couldn't quit is probably exactly like you said...I don't want to. I just don't know how to want to.

Im going to try and quit on the first month. Found out neither of my insurances cover it and at $175.00 a month that could get expensive.

Whar dink said, just think about how much you spend in cigarettes every month i know i prolly drop a bill or so if not more every month on cigs, if i got to pay an extra 75 to help quit ill try it. Cant put a price on your health, thats a fact!

Well its my third day on it. Must be a mental thing. I've only smoked maybe 3 cigs total since the begining. But I must say these dreams are really vivid. Kind of entertaining. I just can't tell my wife about them.lol

:rotfl: Yeah you right! As far as the mental part, I experienced the same thing. Coming up to my quit date, I was nervous as heck but, by the time I got to it, I really didn't have any cravings.

I agree with Salty 100%. If you don't want to quit, it will not work.

Before you start chantix Please google the new studies that were released
the first week of july.
They show a very big increase in the chance of heart problems for chantix users.

Watch the Chantix with high blood pressure, my buddies wife used it with success but had to watch her blood pressure. I quit cold turkey 16 months ago after 33 years and I do not feel a damn bit better. Gained about 24 pounds but I wanted to quit and was sucessful. Good Luck!

Dreams are pretty cool. More vivid than normal. But no other side effects.
