5 months and still off the fags!
I started Champix on 20th January this year, had my last ciggie on day 1, completed the full 3 month course of champix along with support sessions with Zara, my smoking cessation nurse once a fortnight and here I am 5 months on still smoke free, slightly heavier but much more healthy. I have started

Thank you to posters. It is good info for us beginners!
Day 21 on champix and day 14 of not smoking. My stomach has settled down. Eating more fruit and having a green salad with dinner has helped.

Tried again 6 months ago and got a horribly achy stomach...not just the nausea but achy as well. Going to attempt Champix again but dreading the stomach thing...anyone have any good tips other than

Hi everyone, for those that had side effects to Champix; how long after starting them did you feel the symptoms?

Vaping??
I know not everyone agrees with it but I’m going to try and quit again with vaping. I had a horrid time of champix in the end so I’m going to try this. Any thoughts from anyone?

Day 1 on Apro-Varenicline
So I had a relapse about 2 months ago feeling so yucky from smoking. All the things I hated about smoking are back in full effect!!! YUCK😝 Today I started 1mg because I haven't been smoking for that long hopefully I will only be doing one month so my quitting date is in two weeks. I did quit on Champix

Third week - Muscle Pains and Joints Cracking
Have a box of
Chantix
at home but the side effects scared me off enough for me to quit cold turkey. But since quitting, I've been dealing with annoying muscle aches in my arms, shoulders and legs (thighs). It also seems all my joints are cracking...I feel like a box of bones and strained muscles.

Just wanted to give you all a quick check in about the champix
Hi, I ended up taking 12 days worth of champix. I felt totally fine until about day 10. Then I felt irritated, anxious, angry, emotional in quite a severe way. I took 2 more days worth (bear in mind I was still smoking so it wasn't nicotine withdrawal) and I ended up in a sobbing mess and feeling extremely

Champix
Hello everyone, I'm on day 9 of taking champix and still smoking. I was in 2 minds to plan a quit day as my stop smoking nurse said dont worry your brain will tell you but I'm worried what if it doesnt lol! Then I thought if I plan a quit day am I more likely to start again because I didnt give champix

I messed up Big time!!!
Hey guys it's been awhile since I've been on here I just like to say I did quit smoking for a year and 3 months after taking champix I couldn't have been so proud of myself until my dog died a month ago. I picked up a cigarette and I haven't stopped smoking since I tried vaping it didn't work I'm going

Smoking dreams and Chantix, schmantix?
So I'm thinking about killing the
Chantix
. I only started taking it because I signed up for a quit-smoking study and they are providing it, along with patches that may or may not be placebos.

Day 8 Champix
Hi just me again!! I have a question for the champix people. On what day did you quit? I ask because I still don’t have any effects of not wanting to smoke or loosing desire to. I know you have to want to give up too which I do but I thought the tablets might have an effect by now?! Maybe I need a few

Having issues quitting on champix
Hey there! I'm currently in the process of quitting smoking and taking champix. The first while everything was going smooth. Week 2-3 the morning pill would make me super nauseous, my mouth would actually water and I was sure I was going to vomit but never did. The evening pill never did this to me.
