You should always consult with your doctor when thinking about trying a new drug. <br /><br />Other drugs can interact with Chantix. When you discuss Chantix with your doctor, make sure you tell him or her about all the medications you are using, even over-the-counter herbs. Chantix could interact with them.<br /><br />Chantix does have risks of side-effects. Some people have had changes in behavior, hostility, agitation, depressed mood, suicidal thoughts or actions while using Chantix to help them quit smoking. These symptoms might occur as soon as you start taking Chantix, or they might begin a couple of weeks after you start taking it. They could also continue for a couple of weeks after stopping Chantix because the drug will need some time to completely leave your system. <br /><br />Some people feel that the risks of the side-effects of Chantix are worth it just because they have tried quitting smoking so many times and failed. Chantix might give them the edge they needed in order to finally quit. As long as you are being monitored by a physician, he or she will be able to tell you if the side-effects are normal and if they will go away over time.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1194580482375224568-6436919754958460603?l=chantixstopsmokingdrug.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Janehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07130290986419669990noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1194580482375224568.post-37190948419260135592009-08-28T19:55:00.000-07:002009-08-28T20:04:04.273-07:00Chantix is a non-nicotine pill that helps you stop smoking. It targets nicotine receptors in the brain, attaches to them, and blocks nicotine from reaching them. The way Chantix works is that it tells your brain that nicotine isn't making you feel happy like it used to. This makes you want to smoke less and it makes you have less cravings for nicotine. This makes smoking less pleasurable for you, which means the Chantix is working.<br /><br />Chantix does not contain nicotine at all, which means that you do not have to quit smoking cold turkey. Chantix is typically prescribed in 12 week regiments. Talking with your doctor may mean that your doctor will have a different treatment plan for you as you begin using Chantix. Typically, the 12 week cycles will start with you taking Chantix while still smoking, which will allow the drug to build up in the body and help your need for cigarettes to lessen. Then you can wean off of smoking after the drug has begun to work.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1194580482375224568-3719094841926013559?l=chantixstopsmokingdrug.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Janehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07130290986419669990noreply@blogger.com1
