Champix is excellent. Very few reported side effects, especially compared with other stop smoking medications. It is also highly effective at reducing the amount of cigarettes smoked and eventually allowing the smoker to stop. It is a fairly long process though with a period of reducing smoking then stopping altogether. If you’re motivated it’s a very good option.

How to stop smoking while on birth control pills?

Wednesday, September 30th, 2009

I’ve stopped smoking(cold turkey) while on it before but started again(obviously) and i was wondering if there is an easier way that is safe to use/do while on birth control pills?

No. I’m afraid not. You need to quit (again). Not only for the pills, but for your general health.

what are the best ways to stop smoking with out using medications?

my mom is trying to stop smoking for at least the 4th time now, and she is having a lot of trouble doing so. she doesnt wasnt to buy anything or use any medication, expencive or not, but she doesnt know what to do. i just want to help her out and want to know how to do so, thanks.

I just quit 30 days ago now… and after smoking for 10 years I know how tough it can be. There is nothing such as cold turkey in quitting. It has to be gradual withdrawal. Check what strenght cigarettes your mom used to smoke and then ask her to smoke half the strenght and half the amount for a few weeks and then half the strenght and amount again for a few weeks do this until she is smoking 2mg cigarettes and no more then 5 a day. After a while, replace the cigarettes with Nicotine gums and finally try going without cigarettes. It took me 6 weeks, but I’m off cigarettes for good. I used to smoke a pack a day and now I don’t need cigarettes at all.

Whats the name of the NEW stop smoking drug (not Zyban™) ?…?

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009

… and has any one succeeded in qutting smoking using this new product ? (It was recently licenced in the US i believe)

Whats are your thoughts on it ?
Well done for quitting "Just Ducky!!" I have done so on two or three occasions for extended periods… but started again .. The ‘drug’ helps you to stay quit :-)

All the best

Chantix™ (varenicline) is a recently approved drug manufactured by Pfizer, to help people kick the habit.

Chantix™ works differently than other smoking-cessation drugs currently on the market, Pfizer said. It acts on the nicotine receptors in the brain, helping people overcome nicotine cravings and withdrawal symptoms, and lessening the pleasure they get from smoking.

Chantix™ is a pill taken twice a day for 12 weeks. Smokers who successfully quit after the first course of treatment will have the option of taking a second 12-week course, the FDA said, because that could increase their chances of staying off cigarettes for the long term. The drug should be available in the second half of this year, Pfizer said.

Tuesday, September 29th, 2009

I’m 16.

I’ve been taking my birth control pills since the beginning of May & I’ve stopped taking them in the beginning of June.

How long do I have to stop taking the pills to smoke (ciggs) without them having an effect on my health?

If I get back on birth control in July will it have any effect on me?

chantix (varenicline) tablets starter pack

It does something to the part of your brain that aids in addiction. The gums and patches just feed the nicotine addiction until you are weaned off. This is completely different. I recently asked my boss (pharmacist) what it does because I was curious too. I’ve heard from many customers that it works wonders. However, there can be some side effects. Horrible dreams were a common one! Good luck. The benefits definetely outweigh the draw backs!

isn’t there a pill to help you stop smoking?

Monday, September 28th, 2009

i heard there was.if so how do you get it and what’s the name of it and the cost?i need to stop smoking bad.i’v tried EVERYTHING else.please help.

CHANTIX…I can’t say enough !!
The cost w/o ins. about 98$ but how much do you spend in a month on cigs???
Most ins do cover, I got it for25$, no headaches, kinda crazy dreams(not nightmares) first few weeks, but hey….is that considered a ‘bad’ side effect?
My mother smoked for 40 years,tried it all (twice) and chantix worked after the first week.

When I stopped I had no social life…when I started again…?

Monday, September 28th, 2009

I stopped smoking pot and doing occasional illegal drugs for 11 months. I just started again as a way of coping with depression, but I knew it wouldn’t hurt my social life either. I haven’t drank for a year now… I think 13 months actually. I don’t know if I want to start. I miss my social life, and I turned down so many social events in the last year because I didn’t want to be tempted by drugs and alcohol. I stopped so that I could improve my depression, anxiety, whatever else, but I am as depressed I think in that year as I was when I was drinking and smoking pot. I just don’t know what else to do with my friends anymore, really. I miss the old days so much when we all knew how to have fun without drugs and alcohol. But, of course I am in my last year of high school and its all people want to do, with parties and everything. Its so casual for them, smoking a joint or drinking, and it was such a big deal to me. I just want to be able to be happy… or to be casual and chill out and smoke a joint. I don’t know if it will screw me up more in the long term…I don’t want to go the alcohol route as its a depressant, but I am so incredibly sad I was almost put in a mental hospital for a med change to find an anti depressant that worked because I’ve been on two that made me way worse than I’d ever been naturally and suicidal. Anyway… what are some things I can do with my friends in our last year of high school that will build memories and actually be fun without substances? And what should I do about the substance issue personally? Thank you very much for your help and reading my rambling.
Yes, that’s what I was saying…. drinking is a depressant and therefore a bad idea… and I have been on anti depressants, an SSRI and an an SNRI, which would be Effexor…which made me crazy, sadly. I am in therapy, have useless coping mechanisms and have a psychologist and psychiatrist. Though, thanks for trying.

Hmm depression fixed with a depressant. Seem a little backwards to you? Dont use alcohol for and anti-depressant. Use medications that are prescribed by a doctor. An SSRI would be a good start, dont know if you were on an ssri before, but you can also try the new generation effexor and abilify too. Therapy would be the best for you though. Sounds like you need some coping mechanisms to get over the feelings of loss. (albeit loss of sociallity)

Let it be known. The "old days" are just that.. the old days. These are the new days and you cant relive your past, even if you did get back into that same social circle of getting blasted every night, it wont seem the same to you because you are depressed.

Go see a therapist/ psychiatrist and get something that will work for you before your depression worsens, and NOTHING makes you happy.

Has anyone used the new stop smoking drug?…"Chantix"….any luck?…?

Sunday, September 27th, 2009

any ideas for stopping smoking? (believe me, Ive tried them all)…Im am sooo ready to quit this time!

Chantix is the real deal!
I am a 24 year smoker who has always fallen short when quitting. I would usually last 3 to 5 days and give in to the urge thinking "I’ll try again soon – I just can’t do it right now"

Chantix made the physical craving waves totally tolerable, leaving the real battle to be mental. The fact that I always draw mental strength from is – "If I actually was to have a cigarette, it would taste like crap, and I would be re-hooked instantly" – NO THANKS!

Being an addict to a death dealing / smelly / high cost habit is not the way to go folks.

Best of luck to all you quitters!
