Tabex
and have tried everything - cold turkey,
zyban
, Champix twice!, hypnotherapy, patches, gum, lozenges, vaping - to quit. At 52, I’m about to embark on another effort. I’ve ordered some Tabex online, and am wondering if anyone else has tried it, and how successful it was for them?

Anyone on Bupropion (Zyban) for depression?
She did not want to take the responsibility of prescribing Bupropion (
Zyban
) as it is not licenced for depression. Anyone lucky enough to get it prescribed, any advice on how to get it prescribed here in UK?

3 months clean today - used desmoxan
I have tried patches, gum and
zyban
. In the end I almost resigned myself to being a life time smoker, albeit reluctantly. I suppose I got a big wake up call just over a year when my older brother (63) suffered a severe stroke and is now in long term nursing home care in Ireland.

Day 2
I have tried to quit a number of times, using a variety of methods
zyban
, patches, gum inhaler etc. I smoked my final cigarette on Friday night. This time I was using desmoxan, I am getting cravings but I think it is helping a bit. I will keep you posted on progress!!

Zyban - Just a thought
I took
Zyban
once in an attempt to give up smoking and at the same time I was taking something else for a fungal infection on my feet (I trained a lot so I probably caught it from the changing rooms).

Over a year now without cracking.
The first time being when I took the prescription drug '
Zyban
'. The tablets had horrible side effects and made me feel so irritable that I became afraid I might go crazy.

New here and just started getting all day anxiety a few days ago
I started a prescription of generic
Zyban
to quit smoking. I never even considered anxiety as a side effect when I started it (I should have). The first day was fine actually. The second day it just randomly triggered sudden panic. I took a clonazapam (my BF has a prescription for them.

Champix does not work for me
I've been on the patch several times (and was successful after 9 days and did not smoke for 4 months) I have been on
Zyban
which worked immediately as I quit smoking within a week. Unfortunately I was allergic to it and have to stop taking it.

Ready to stop
I have tried many times to stop but the longest was 3 weeks on Champix, Im thinking of
Zyban
or Champix this time again but can you take other stop smoking aids along with this or are they taken on there own. Just looking for the security of having very little urges when i stop

WHY STOP SMOKING?
Also, medicines called bupropion (trade name
Zyban
®) and varenicline (trade name Champix®) can help. These are available on prescription. See separate leaflets called Nicotine Replacement Therapy, Bupropion (
Zyban
®) and Varenicline (Champix®) for more details.

Should I have been given Zyban/bupropion to treat my anxiety/depression?
This morning I went to see my doc realising that I need to go back on medication again. (I'm 45 and male btw). I've previously been on prozac (years ago) and citalopram a couple of times. There are things about citalopram which I'm not keen on and make my anxiety worse (such as a decreased ability

Zyban and thyroid meds
The question is this: if
zyban
increases metabolism (which I believe happens to some people), and if it's giving me hyper symptoms, then should I decrease my T3 or T4? Stopping the
zyban
is not an option as I feel more human than I have in years.

Naltrexone - and weight loss?
Obviously the combination with bupropion (Welbutrin,
Zyban
) more often thought of as an anti-depressant raises more issues than it answers! [i]Orexigen Receives CHMP Day 180 List of Outstanding Issues SAN DIEGO, July 30, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Orexigen Therapeutics, Inc.
