The claims are that one in five people who use this drug are still not smoking a year later. There are a number of side affects that mean a number of people do not tolerate the drug very well and therefore stop taking it. Stopping smoking still requires effort as the drug helps with reducing the desire to smoke and also removes the pleasure when you do smoke thus making it easier to stop completely. Nevertheless psychological "pangs" still occur and need to be resisted and routines that generate these "pangs" need to be changed. Exactly how effective Chantix outside Clinical trials remains controversial. Attendance at anti-smoking classes/support group increase the chances of becoming a non-smoker irrespective of the method chosen.

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."
