Good move.

All those sides are usual. I know the throat sprays can lead to hiccups too. All the sides should diminish with use.

There has been some interesting reports of champix causing serious mood shifts in a lot of people, and that included violent feelings in a lot of cases. IIRC it was one of the strongest violence inducing effects in certain sections of the population.

New Study Provides Strong Evidence of Causal Association Between Chantix and Violent Acts Towards Others
A new research study published online ahead of print in the journal Annals of Pharmacotherapy concludes that the drug Chantix (varenicline) is most likely causally associated with thoughts and acts of aggression and violence (see: Moore TJ, Glenmullen J, Furberg CD. Thoughts and acts of aggression/violence toward others reported in association with varenicline. Annals of Pharmacotherapy 2010).

The authors identified 26 cases of FDA-reported adverse drug events associated with varenicline that included acts and thoughts of aggression and violence toward others and met the WHO criteria for possible, likely, or certain association with the drug. This excluded cases involving suicide if there was no violence toward others. In all 26 cases, there were inexplicable and unprovoked acts or thoughts of violence toward others. In 24 of these 26 cases, there was no indication of a prior history of violence. Perhaps most importantly, in 10 of 11 cases in which there was information about the effect of the discontinuation of varenicline, the symptoms resolved in a few days after the drug was discontinued.

The study concludes as follows: "These data contain several characteristics that add scientific weight to the accumulating evidence that varenicline is associated with unprovoked acts and thoughts of aggression/violence toward others. The temporal relationship evidence was strong, with an early and often immediate onset of abnormal dreams and thoughts, and the adverse effects usually resolved with discontinuation of treatment. In the 3 rechallenge cases, the adverse effects reappeared (often in more severe form) when the drug was restarted and disappeared when the drug was stopped again. The patient population of predominantly middle-aged women was typical of those who are trying to quit smoking with varenicline but is an unlikely age group and sex for assault and acts of violence toward others." ( Siegel 2010 )

Not sure if they help you giving up but they're better for you than the real thing and i was amazed when he showed them to me, you blow out a vapour that looks like smoke when you exhale too!

I don't smoke though so can't really comment.

 

[danny187]

Well it has been 23 hours without a cigerette so that is a good start, will take everyday as it comes

23 hours without a cigarette stick at it mate

yeah champix can cause anxiety/depression or make it worse. i wasnt at first allowed champix as i was taking citalophram for depression. I had to have 3-6 months clear of the anti depression meds before they would let me use it.

Once my gp prescribed it it was under the condition if i had any symptoms of depression i stopped the champix straight away
