Lapsed

[PipEFC]

I'd gone seven and a half months (four without champix) without smoking but I completely caved in yesterday. I've had five cigarettes since yesterday afternoon. I don't know what's happened. Will I be able to get champix prescribed again? I'm gutted

Welcome PipEFC - sorry to read of your relapse - I would suggest going back to your doctor to discuss going back on the champix - let us know how you get on....

Thanks Roisin0, I will do. Your support and this website is much appreciated. x

After seeing your doctor, pick a date to quit again PipEFC. Feel motivated to quit, but don't be down on yourself. We have all had slips.

Thank you CocoaXChange. x

Thanks for that Sarah. I've started back on the champix but if the stronger dose I start on Monday makes me feel sick again I'll rethink it. I'm going to have a look at tabex - I've never heard of it. Thanks again.

Hey PipEFC - think the tabex is similar to champix but not under prescription from your doctor which is probably why not many know about it and could potentially cause harmful and dangerous side effects.
