Short and sweet: I've smoked a pack to a pack and a half a day for 12 years. I've made several lame attempts to quit in the past. One quit was for four months using the nicotine patch....this was a tough four months primarily because I was having to use the "will power method" and still had nicotine in my system. I've been smoke free now for 27 days and while it's still early yet, I can never imagine picking up another cigarette. I believe you have to be ready to quit smoking on the Chantix, but it lessons the "wanting to jump out of my skin" feeling or the… read full review »

WOW, I love this stuff. I have had no trouble reducing the nicotine cravings. This stuff is awesome. Just make sure you eat before taking it. That has been my only problem. I am lucky, insurance covers it, but it is real… read full review »

My husband has suffered two heart attacks, triple bypass surgery and a stroke, each time the doctors told him he had to quit smoking. When he had his bypass surgery 3 years ago the doctors told him if he did not quit he would be back in surgery within 5 years. He did not listen to the doctors and continued to smoke. His reason was that nothing worked and because he smoked for 35 years he could not quit. He stated he tried everything and nothing would work. Well about a year ago he became a proud grandfather and decided life was too short and would like to be… read full review »

I am 21 started smoking when I was 12, I smoked about a pack a day. I thought it would be a good birthday persent to myself and those who want to grow old with me, so I researched Chantix like crazy a few months before my quit date (my 21st birthday). — Week one, I still smoked on it, never got sick, no crazy dreams, sleep like a baby, I was fine. The day of my birthday I slept at my boyfriends house and he must have throw my pack out when we got home the night before... let me tell you that was the best thing that ever happend to me. I forgot my Chantix… read full review »

I really wanted to quit smoking. A few people had spoken to me about how well Chantix worked. — So I was skeptical just like you, right? But I did a little bit of homework online and talked to my doctor about Chantix. I was lucky that my insurance covered most of the cost, so I started taking it. — Two days after I started taking it, I stopped enjoying the act of smoking. There was just no satisfaction in it; none at all. Heck, I didn't even wait the 7 days that you're supposed to before you quit, I stopped after 5 days. — I haven't… read full review »

in an effort to finally quit smoking, I talked to my Doctor and he gave me two boxes of the Commit lozenges. I shortly thereafter saw the price at my local Walgreens which was approx $35 per box. So that was a $75 GIMME and even more driving effort to try it. The first one I tried on my first day of not smoking about 7 hours into not having a smoke. I was in my car and had to pull over to the side of the road, discard the lozenge and try not to throw up. It tasted worse than any cigarette I ever smoked (even the stalest!)- I have been afraid to try it again ever… read full review »

Upon findings of spots on my mother's lungs, the whole family decided to quit smoking. Althought I did not want to, I started my Chantix on a Friday afternoon and by Sunday I could not stand to sit in the bedroom with my smoking boyfriend. My boyfriend began taking his pills on Monday. We both stopped taking them after about a week and a half to two weeks in. I am proud to say that I have been smoke free for 5… read full review »

I've been taking Chantix for almost 2 weeks and it does help. I've quit before...once for two years and most recently for ten years. I know ...I'm an idiot. But I remember how difficult it was before and this seems a lot different. The medication doesn't throw your cigarettes away and stop you from smoking, but it makes it significantly easier. I did have nausea for the first week and I still have trouble sleeping ( I just take the Chantix right after dinner and then a sleeping pill about an hour before bed and that helps). I know people are scared about the long term effects, but look at the… read full review »

3 months smoke-free with depression side effects

My wife and I were both smokers for over 30 years. Our Dr. recommended that we try the Chantix program and work as a team to support eachother. We did the first week, taking the pills and still smoking, then the second week was pills with no smoking. We both thought we were on the right road and that we had finally found a cure for both saving our health plus money spent on cigarettes. We remained smoke-free for an entire 3 months, but it wasn't easy, especially for my wife. One of the side effects of Chantix is depression and that was what she suffered from. She said there was no reason to… read full review »

I started Chantix 10 days ago, and I couldn't be happier. I've been reading blogs online, to see if I could relate to anyone else's experiences, and I'm a bit put-off by the negative comments. Chantix is a miracle. It makes cigarettes taste so bad, that you won't want them. Your cravings become less and less. However, you do have to want to stop. The habit of having a cig in the morning, or on a break, or after lunch is hard to replace. I certainly don't want to replace those habits with food, so it is still a battle. That's been the hardest… read full review »

I have been a smoker for a little over ten years and have tried to quit numerous times. I have been unsuccessful every time because of the powerful cravings and withdrawal symptoms I have suffered. I decided to give Chantix a try because I knew several people who have had success using it. The prescription was not covered by my insurance, so it was expensive, but it was worth it. I began taking the Chantix and without even trying to cut down, I went from a pack of cigarettes a day to three or four a day in under a week. I did this without having any cravings or… read full review »

I have tried for over 10 years to quit smoking. I've tried everything under the sun! When my doc finally put me on chantix it was a dream come true. I simply just lost the urge to smoke. My cravings just slowly went away. No nicotine fits, no getting irritable, no nothing! The only bad thing was that I had to watch when I took it, had to make sure I ate right before and it made me a bit sleepy. So I took one in the middle of my workday and the other right before… read full review »

Working at a healthcare clinic I witness my physicians prescribing this medicine day in and out. Our physicians believe this is the answer to many smokers problem. I have witnessed success stories and some unsuccessful stories. The biggest issue I see with the product is the weight gain I have witnessed with woman using the product. Most of the women stop the program once they notcied the weight gain. When this product is stopped prematurely its' success rate is not to… read full review »
