Anti-smoking drug
I'm considering asking my GP for a prescription for Champix to help me stop smoking. Does anyone know anything about this drug, whether it worsens RLS or might interfere with the action of the opiates I use to combat it?

Hi Lovely People :)
I am about to start the course and have been a smoker since 15 and am now 33. More than half my silly life I have been smoking. I have allergic reactions to the patches so was advised Champix can be the catalyst I am after. I am concerned about the side effects. I am normally stress free, healthy (

Champix does it work?
Hi, i stopped smoking for 7 years and then 5 years ago i went back on them. I want to stop again but have tried all the normal routes and i'm getting nowhere. I've just had a chat with my GP and she has suggested trying Champix. Has anyone ever used them and stopped? At this stage i'd try anything.

CHAMPIX AND RLS
Hi guys, has anyone on this site used Champix as an aid to help give up smoking. If so, did you notice any change with your RLS.

Best tips?
So I’m stopping smoking in a week, I’m trying these tablets called champix and I’m on my 3rd day so far. Apparently on the second week they start to kick in and makes you feel abit nauseous when around tobacco, don’t know if that would be helpful for anyone. I would really like some tips on keeping my

Champix
Not sure if this is the right sight for my question but am wondering if anyone had tried Champix (Varenicline) to give up smkking. I did 19 months ago and had a bad experience. 19 months later and still struggling to get my life back. Even counselling has not helped. Can't get onto any antidepressants

8 Year Anniversary 😀
Jan 19 marked the occasion of quitting cigarettes for 8 years. The day passed, and it didn't even register that it was my anniversary since I rarely think of cigarettes any more. Sometimes, if I do think of cigarettes, exercise will take away any wish to smoke: I guess it's the dopamine hit of exercise
