My second day of Champix

Posted in Hints and tips
schedule 9 Apr 2013

Hiya! I'm on my second day of Champix and I haven't stopped feeling nauseous since I took my first tablet. I haven't been able to keep anything down so putting on weight won't be a problem! haha I'm aware of all of the other nasty side effects of Champix but luckily(?) I have Multiple Sclerosis and the multitude of drugs I have to take for MS cause similar effects. I've been on them for over a decade so I'm used to them now but can someone pleeease tell me that the nausea goes away eventually!

I'm still smoking too, Chrissy. I've set a final smoke day for 12 days from now but it will probably be sooner. Cigarettes are beginning to taste yuck already.

I am on the champix and today is my quit day. So far so good with only mild cravings. Wish you luck in your journey!

I'm on Champix and Day 58 smoke-free, after nearly 40 years of smoking.

I've had nausea and tummy bloating, but - like fierymandy - have a multitude of other medical issues and medications.

But .. hey! if the nausea keeps any weight-gain at bay, then I can handle that for a few months. I've found that eating what I feel like (surprisingly, healthy) rather than 'just coz its there' settle the nausea a bit.

I was just thinking today ... this must be the first time since I was about eleven years old that I've not had a cigarette in this long. (My longest past attempt to quit was about 4 weeks.)

Don't expect to totally quit in 2 days, Chrissy68 ... I quit after nearly 2 weeks on Champix.

Good luck, All! :)
