Champix (varenicline) is a new drug is for smoking cessation. You need to ask your doctor for Champix (varenicline) as it is a prescription only medication. However, you can always ask your pharmacist for advice on champix and smoking cessation. Often the pharmacist has a little bit more time available to help sort out your questions and concerns.
So far varenicline appears to be well tolerated by patients. I have heard a few complaints about difficulties sleeping and some mild depression, however these have been relatively mild and transient. These symptoms are very common with those smokers who also go cold-turkey and it is thought that these may be symptoms of nicotine withdrawals rather than side effects of varenicline. A few people have also complained of a little bit of nausea and some of them have commented that taking the medication with a meal helps reduce this.
I have been impressed by the number of people who have positive results with this method of smoking cessation by remaining smoke free.
There are other things you can do to improve your chances of quitting for good on champix. Your doctor and pharmacist can discuss these with you. Alternatively, feel free to post your questions here.
