This has been a very hard process. But from the first day of my quit date I have not had 1 puff. I am totally commeted to stay quit for the rest of my life. I am so thankful I chose to quit. I feel great, can breath, my cloths don't stink, my teeth are whiter. I am calm. You have to have a strong want inside you to quit. It is not a magic pill. I am glad I have worked so hard not to give in to tha...

This drug has worked very weel for me. I only took it for about a month or so and I very rarely have any cravings. I was a little sick to my stomach for a short time. I have not smoked in 4 months. My husband also tried it but, it made him vomit the second day.

I've smoked 1.5 to 2 packs a day and at least a pack/day for 20 years. I can't believe how easy this makes quitting! Rarely do I have a bad craving. Most of the time I forget about cigarettes during the day/night. I'm really happy with this medication. The only problem I've had is stomach upset. I am a NON-SMOKER now!

Chantix has made the cravings manageable. The side effects were minor for me. Thankfully our insurance covers it.

I am very happy with Chantix, I have been taking now for 3 weeks. I actually made quiting easy. I swear it "erased" the nicotine need in my brain. I do not even think of smoking.

It has been very effective for my husand (smoker of 40+ yrs)/I have not tried it yet. It is NOT covered by insurance and IS very expensive! I smoke around him, but he has been able to refrain. He has had bothersome side effects that were enough to prevent me from trying it myslef. Hello vote 2008 -- UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE COVERAGE!

I was unable to continue to the second month due to price so I've had difficulty staying smoke-free but this med is a miracle.
