Day 3 of champix
Day 3 of taking champix, i am still smoking about 8-10 days which I was normally doing 20 a day, but they are not tasting like they used to they are making me feel physically sick which is a good thing! I am only smoking out of boredom anyway or after I have eaten. Start taking two tablets from tomorrow, so we will wait and see if this will help a lot more. Fingers crossed :)
Hi,
Well i went through the same thing, its almost like it makes you smoke more for the first week and then suddenly it drops.Champix works better with will power, so be strong and all the best! *Tip the nausea gets really bad when you om two tablets, my doctor pescribed Valoid which i take with my champix it works like magic.
Well done for starting your journey. I also used champix to start my quit effort. I didn't do the full 12 weeks of champix though. After I had been off smokes for about a month I quit champix.
My positives were that it made it a lot easier to quit smoking. I stopped after about two weeks on champix. The dreams were amazing, I mean really amazing.
My only negative was the withdrawal from champix. I missed a few pills by mistake and noticed the next day that I just did not want to talk to anyone, if I did I was usually biting their heads off. I did some research and discovered that champix has some anti depressant qualities about it. So whatever you do, don't forget to take them, your moods will be terrible.
Good luck.
Try taking the pills with a meal that really helps, also drink loads of water, it helps to flush your system of all the toxins. Keep in mind that part of the ill feelings are actually due to withdrawal from all the chemicals we've been inhaling for years and years! After I was smoke free for about four weeks I went down to one pill a day and that has worked great for me, now day 84 smoke free, and no side effects from champix at all. Stay strong, the battle is so worth it! I wish you all the best!
After smoking for 30 years, and now I have emphysema, its time to quit smoking, I did quit about 4 years ago but ended up taking it back up when I got sick and stressed. So its nearly 2 weeks on champix and day 3 without a smoke. I feel down but I know its just the withdraw signs.I am pleased to see there is other people going through this I know I did it last time and can do it this time .
