Chantix (Synonym: Champix) Buy Now

Chantix (varenicline) is an oral prescription medication to help adults stop smoking..

How Chantix Works
Chantix works in two ways to help you stop smoking. It works to block the effects of nicotine, reducing the pleasure reward of smoking. And it provides some nicotine effects to ease the severity of cravings and withdrawal symptoms. This dual action makes it easier for many patients to stop smoking.

Advantage of Chantix
Like Zyban, Chantix does not contain nicotine so patients can take Chantix while using nicotine replacement products like gum and patches to help them stop smoking. Independent studies have shown that Chantix helped more people stop smoking than Zyban (44% with Chantix vs. 30% with Zyban).

How to Take Chantix
Choose a quit date when you will stop smoking. Then start taking Chantix 7 days before your quit date. This lets Chantix build up in your system. You begin by taking one tablet a day for three days, then increase to two a day until treatment is over. You can keep smoking during this time. Make sure you try to stop smoking on your quit date. If you slip, try again. Some people need a few weeks for Chantix to work. Most people will keep taking Chantix for up to 12 weeks. Take Chantix after eating and with a full glass of water.

Chantix Side Effects
The most common side effects of Chantix are nausea, changes in dreaming, constipation, gas and vomiting. If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor promptly. A serious allergic reaction to Chantix is unlikely, but seek immediate medical attention if it occurs. Symptoms of a serious allergic reaction include: rash, itching, swelling, dizziness, trouble breathing. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.

Chantix Precautions
Tell your doctor about all of your medical conditions including if you have kidney problems or need kidney dialysis. Your doctor may prescribe a lower dose of Chantix if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. Chantix has not been studied in pregnant women and it is not known if Chantix will harm your unborn baby. Although it was not studied, Chantix may pass into breast milk.

Drug Interactions
Tell your doctor of all prescription and nonprescription medication you use, especially: insulin, asthma medicines, and blood thinners. When you stop smoking, there may be a change in how these and other medicines work for you. Do not start or stop any medicine without doctor or pharmacist approval.
