I will soon celebrate my 2 year quit anniversary. I smoked about 2 packs a day for more than 30 years. I used Chantix for 3 months. The side effects were tolerable, especially when I consider all the damage I’ve done by smoking. Read about the side effects of nicotine withdrawal. They include irritability, insomnia, fatigue, inability to concentrate, headache, gas, stomach pain, and tightness in the chest. You’ll see that many of the side effects are the same as people experienced while undergoing nicotine withdrawal on Chantix. Pilots can’t take Benadryl and a whole laundry list of medications, including any antidepressants or anything that may cause drowsiness. Good luck with quitting no matter how you do it.

Always a good indication – are pilots allowed to take the medication and still fly?

It has been linked to more than 3000 reports of problems including suicides, heart trouble and aggression, according to a new study by the non-profit Institute for Safe Medication Practices that sparked the Federal Aviation Administration review.

They banned it. Would you trust it?

I have not had any personal experience with Chantix but with what people say at Yahoo answers I wouldn’t go near the stuff. The side effects I have read so far include: headaches, nausea, stomach pains, mood swings, bad temper, feelings of depression and nearly everyone says they suffer from nightmares. Most people suffer from one or more of these side effects.

I truly believe that to quit smoking you need to deal with your psychological addiction before your physical one. As soon as I dealt with my psychological reasons for smoking I quit, first time and more importantly for good.

Quitting smoking does not require any patches, gums, herbs or drugs. These methods are expensive, time consuming, potentially harmful and simply do not work. All that is required is a bit of motivation, self belief and determination.

If you still choose to use Chantix than please do a lot of research first.

Good Luck and Good Quitting

I know two people who used it. One person had success with it. She said she didn’t have any cravings or bad side effects.
The other said she had horrible nightmares, stopped taking it, and is smoking again.
Hope it works for you!

Yes, my son in law. He didn't quit and the side effects were HORRIBLE!!! Please try something else, and not Welbutrin, they have the same side effects.
