Chantix for quitting smoking



Recommended Posts

Just wondering if any of you have ever used Chantix to quit smoking. I just started on the program today. Were you able to quit within the 7 days? I think I'm on the program for 3 or 4 months.:clap2:

My girlfriend who has smoked for 30 years was able to quit in 5 days of using the drug and has not smoked for a month now. She says it's a wonder drug. Her husband is also successfully using it... he had a 2+ pack/day habit and is in an office with 3 smokers ....and he has quit also. The only side effects that they complain of is slight nausea for an hour or so in the evenings.

WASabubble butt, I don't really know how it works but it does. With my experience today I feel like I just don't want to smoke. I think it must affect the brain sensors for nicotine or something. I just felt really funny picking up a smoke today. I can't describe it other than the fact that it doesn't taste that good. It is taking me a long time to finish one and I haven't really been able to. I just started the drug today. I think it is a miracle drug,,,I swear! Let me know when you start okay. Julie

I am a true believer in Chantix. I started taking Chantix January 11 and my quit day was January 17. I have not smoke one time. I am now 10 weeks SMOKE FREE:clap2: .

I have smoked for 22 years and have tried many times. It is amazing how great I feel and how much better I can breathe. I dont weeze at night when I sleep.

There really are very few cravings for me. Just last week it appeared to me that I havent even thought about smoking in about 3 days.

Not sure if your aware but Chantix website has an awesome support group that will either send you and email daily or make a phone call for support. It really helped me.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
