Advice on quit day

Posted in Hints and tips

Please can somebody advise me? I see on the Champix kit days 1 - 3 show you can smoke and from day 4 it shows No smoking. Reading the various stories it seems as though most people stop smoking between days 7 and 10. Do you just keep smoking until you don't want to anymore? Or - asre you supposed to try from day 4? What I suppose I'm really asking is - must i start panicking if I haven't stopped smoking on day 4?

No, don't panic!

The way it worked for me was I kept smoking until the taste of cigarettes made me feel sick - which was around day 5. It works differently for everyone, if it's a concern for you, bring it up with your doctor.

All the best!

Don't panic Leigh, I'm starting my 2nd Month and haven't stopped yet. Friends who have successfully stopped smoking with Champix say have a smoke if you really feel it, and that this feeling will pass. I've had lots of times when I haven't smoked, so I'm hoping this works for you (and me)

Thanks to all for the support. Man - I hope mine doesn't take 2 months. I will be a basket case. I have Emphysema. Have had 3 tablets so far, so start the 1mg today. I suppose I need to be a bit patient.
