Has anyone used champix?

Hi. I have just been to my local stop smoking clinic and I've been put on champix tablets which I start tomorrow. I'm also going to stop smoking tomorrow. I tried a couple of weeks ago and managed 2 weeks with the help of patches but I started getting a reaction to them, stopped using them, started smoking again. Has anyone used champix?

My doctor prescribed it for me but after reading the side effects I decided not to use it. I felt like I may be trading one chemical dependency for another. I quit cold turkey which was tough for the first week but after that has gotten easier and easier. Best of luck, take it one day at a time.
