I'm on day 5 of Champix and apart from some mild side effects am doing ok. The only thing that's bothering me is that I am still smoking the same amount of fags as before. I am a bit concerned as having read other peoples threads some are saying that they didn't want to smoke. Was anyone still smoking the same amount by day 5?

Don't worry about still smoking the same amount on day 5 of champix you'll be fine OK they recommend you stop sometime in the second week after all I suspect that within the next day or do you'll find you smoke less but we're all different and so will the amount we want to smoke be during this time on champix I smoked roughly the same amount for about 6/7 days and then didn't want to smoke anymore but forced it for another day or so and it made me feel poorly so stopped altogether on day 9/10
