quitting Champix..

schedule 25 Oct 2014

After 12 weeks of taking 0.5 mg of Champix 2wice a day.. I quit taking the Champix.. thank goodness.. very hard drug to take, but I felt the side effects from Champix would be worth the end result of quiting. Now I'm 5 days off of Champix and I get these really bad headaches.. I'm no someone who get headaches, so I find them painful. How long does it take for the Champix to leave my system..?? I sleep better too now.. and still not smoking..

Try lavender oil on your pillowcase to ease the headaches.

penelopejane. thanks for your suggestion. The headaches are gone now.. it must have been the withdrawal from Champix. I also bought some Pu-erh tea which also helped.
