Chantix has one of the best records of any pharmaceutical, however it does have potential side effects. "Ask your doctor if Chantix is for you."

You should know that smoking is an extremely complex addiction. If you truly want to quit, the various aids will help, but they will not do the job on their own. You must follow the directions without deviation. Addicts are always good at finding excuses for doing things they're told not to do, so keep that in mind too.

You can do it. The writer did it after smoking for 35 years, but it took several tries.

Can taking chantix increase cholesterol?

Good question about chantix but are you over 18 and attempting to quit smoking? I tried stopping smoking for almost 11 years with limited success. The only solution that truly works are smokeless cigarettes. You get all the flavor as a the real thing without all the deadly side effects like tar and benzene.


Can taking chantix get you high?

No, all Chantix does is block the nicotinic receptors in your brain so that you no longer feel the good effects of nicotine. However, in some cases, people taking chantix have had very vivid dreams, suicidal thoughts, and psychotic episodes - so, if any of those interest you, then give it a shot, lol. Good luck, and don't be stupid!


Can Strattera and chantix be taken together?

I have been taking effexor 75mg for 6 years. I also smoke and drink too much. I asked my doctor 12 months ago if I could take chantix she said no because of my depression in the past. 3 months ago I went back to the doctor and said I want to take chantix as I really hate smoking and need to change my life. She gave them to me but said to watch my mood. Well I had NO side effects at all, only a little more tired but that is it! I took chantix one hour after taking my effexor in the morning. I had my last smoke on day 5 taking chantix and have never had a urge, I can also now enjoy a wine without a disgusting cigarette. My drinking has cut down dramatically as I always enjoyed both together. I didn't need to take chantix for 12 weeks only 4 weeks. It really is a miracle tablet. I am so happy my life is back !! Good luck to all


Can alcohol affect the workings of Chantix?

There is no indication that alcohol interacts with Chantix. However, given the known association between drinking alcohol and smoking, it might be a good idea to monitor your feelings if drinking, especially in social situations. The drinking and environment could trigger your desire to smoke. Read the information that came with your prescription. There are some fairly serious side effects associated with Chantix, including the possibility of depression and suicidal ideation. These could also be exaggerated by the effects of alcohol.

What happens when you mix cocaine and chantix?

I found that it decreased the effects of the bump significantly. I also sensed a feeling of throat constriction coupled with an elevation in anxiety. I did not enjoy my buzz at all, and could never achieve the buzz I wanted. It was good coke according to everyone else. ~Fatman You will be risking having some of the serious neuropsychiatric side effects of Chantix be masked by the cocaine, or what you presume would be those symptoms, or having a potent combination of drugs that can produce the same effects. Consider these warnings from the manufacturer about some of the side effects of Chantix: "All patients being treated with CHANTIX should be observed for neuropsychiatric symptoms including changes in behavior, hostility, agitation, depressed mood, and suicide-related events, including ideation, behavior, and attempted suicide. These symptoms, as well as worsening of pre-existing psychiatric illness and completed suicide have been reported in some patients attempting to quit smoking while taking CHANTIX in the post-marketing experience. When symptoms were reported, most were during CHANTIX treatment, but some were following discontinuation of CHANTIX therapy. These events have occurred in patients with and without pre-existing psychiatric disease. Patients with serious psychiatric illness such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depressive disorder did not participate in the pre-marketing studies of CHANTIX and the safety and efficacy of CHANTIX in such patients has not been established."


How do you give the medicine to the gym leader of Olivine City in Pokemon Crystal?

In Cianwood City you receive the medicine from the medicine shop. To give the medicine to the gym leader you have to go to the top of the lighthouse in olivine, which is where she will be. She will then return to her gym where she will battle you. Be careful - her Pokemon (2 magnemites and a Steelix) can be tough! Good luck! :)


What are some effective ways to get people to stop smoking?

You can always try to use the Nicorette medicine, or the anti-smoking patches. Another good way to help stop is to do something you enjoy rather than smoking a cigarette. You tend to take your mind off the crave when you're doing something you enjoy.
