For Smoking Cessation "My mom has atrial fibrillation, and she started Chantix 3 weeks ago. While taking the med, she said she just didn't feel right and really tired. The doctor said yesterday that being tired like that was from the atrial fibrillation."

For Smoking Cessation "I am on my 4th week. I used to smoke 1 pack a day, now about 10 cigarettes a day. I noticed I am tired a lot and still feel nausea only when I smoke and pain in the lower right side of my back. No weird dreams. One thing weird: my sense of smell is off."

For Smoking Cessation "Well, I've only been on it for 8 days, don't feel too good, and still smoking. My chest hurts, no energy, was up most of last night, and when I do smoke, I feel sick, so it must be doing something to my body. I pray it starts working because I'm ready to be a non-smoker. I do not like feeling sick."

For Smoking Cessation "2.5 weeks on Chantix. Quit cigarettes on 4th day. Now 2 weeks cigarette-free. Side effects were a touch of nausea and gas. A few vivid dreams, but not too bad. A bit tired, but I take only after dinner around 7:30 - no day dose for me. Last side effect is joint pain, elbow, toes and finger joints, neck, etc. hurt. Not on 0.5 mg, only 1 mg dose. Benefits are not smoking and some relief for my menopause symptoms. I am loving that. I had withdrawals from the patch, got sick from the gum. I like to smoke, but they trigger my migraines. Thanks, Chantix!"

"I am smoke-free for 14 days. I have headaches, lethargy, nausea, mania, moodiness I cannot wash off! My poor co-workers are paying the price but are proud and understanding. I have smoked for 24 yrs. I am in my 3rd week, and it's worked for me. I have had a few weird dreams and only one terrifying end-of-the-world nightmare, where I woke up crying. Nothing since though. I have actually been sleeping better and a lot more. It's still worth it to me. I recommend it to anyone trying to quit. I also save $110.00 a month. It takes 6 minutes to smoke a cigarette 6x15 to 20 cigarettes a day = 1 1/2 to 2 hours a day of extra time. Get urges, carry coffee stirrers to chew on, that way, the 'hand to mouth' thing is satiated. Sounds silly, but it works!"

For Smoking Cessation "Been on it for 2 months. Very depressed, no energy, don't care about anything, and so very tired all the time. Nothing new for me, so I will stay on it. Love that I don't need to smoke anymore."
