Hi all.. I stopped smoking over 2 year ago using champix (best thing ever) and 6 month ago I started again. I know the worst mistake ever....
Anyways I found my champix tablets and rang the Dr and he said if I'm ready to take them as I did last time. Only thing is this time I feel sick as a dog!!! And I'm having a hard time sleeping. Once I'm a sleep I'm fine it's getting to sleep that's the issue. I'v
Sorry I'm new to this and it stopped me from typing... hahaha anyways I'm taking 1 blue 1mg a day. For now. And have been taking them 6 days now. Any advise or help as with 2 kids some days my peace was sitting on the step hahahaha hope your all well with your journeys and wish me luck 😎😎😎
You HAVE to eat a meal with each pill. I found it besy to eat 1/2 take pill eat other half. Taking 2nd pill earlier helps
I used take a med for anxiety @ night. 3x a day actually that i dont need now! Wow just realized how long its been since i needed one. Maybe constant withdrawl made me feel more anxious.
Also drink lots of water.
Huge welcome to our community sophiejenko92 - have you begun your smoke free journey, if so, how long are you smoke free with the aid of champix?
I stopped over 2 years ago cold turkey but many members here have successfully stopped with champix. The nausea is the most common side effect from taking these pills and below is a link of a pinned post with some tips with this and also a link of other pinned posts worth a read if not already done so...

Yep, it seems to be a common trend if you stopped previously and relapse the next time is harder, it was for me after stopping over 10 years ago no problem and other members have said the same thing, on a positive note, you will learned and know not to do the same thing again that led you to lighting up that 'just one' cigarette 
The sleep disruption is one of the most common withdrawal from nicotine and will have to ride it out, try relaxing with a bath, scented candles and some deep breathing to relax the mind, it will improve, I promise...

Yes thank you!!!!!! I'm happy and proud and adamant I will not touch another again. How are you doing
I'm good thanks, was 2 years smoke free on New Years Day, plodding along
Well done on almost 1 month stopped, keep us posted when you can...
Yes, the nausea plagued me too, but only with the am pill. Eating before seems to help most people. It didn't work that well for me, so I stopped taking the am pill, with no increase in cravings. I just carried on with a 1mg pill daily with supper.
The side effects do tend to diminish as you get used to the medication, so persevere if you can. Discuss any worries with your doctor/nurse. Relapse is less likely if you complete the course. My daughter succeeded (over 5 years quit now ) on her third course of champix, and she said it got much harder each time.
You can do this!
Guys i did it!!!!!!!!!!! I set my date for the 14th of Jan and just jumped. Not thought about it since. Super happy and just goes to show we really can do whatever we have our mind set on. I'm adamant I will never touch a cig again and now don't they smell just awful. Sorry I didn't reply sooner but I've been an avid reader. Thank you!!!!!!!! Hope you are all doing well
