champix

I have read many stories about champix. It amazes me how differently it affects me. It makes me hungry all the time. I have more energy. No nausea. Sleep great! only a few dreams. I really don't feel much effect. Been three weeks. Still smoking. My quit date is in 5 days. Hmmm hope they kick in soon.

Hi guys, ive been on Champix for 14 days now, just quit yesterday! I just wanted to let you guys know that whenever I took the tablets after a decent meal I didnt feel nauseous! Last night I took my tablet quite a while after my dinner and the nausea was horrendous! Please eat a meal before the tablet, a glass of water (as it says on the packet) is not enough! Im also very itchy but I can put up with that in exchange for quitting!
Hope this helps, goid luck people :)

My hubby is on Champix and he is starving and tired all the time but no other effects, I'm also on it and only change is full of energy which is great but I have a bad taste sometime

I'm also taking Champix, I didn't give up smoking until the 3rd week. Im now into my 4th week, with no side effects at all.. I don't feel like a smoe, and I can look at others and not be tempted when their smoking, I hope you all stay strong and keep going with this journey.. stay strong people's and let's stick together..:)
I am on week 9 of champix and 25 days of no smokes. I am having terrible trouble sleeping, with dreams so vivid I am often not sure if it really happened or not. I get the nausea if I take it without a meal first, and am tired and hungrey all the time...!
On the upside my cough I have had for years that stopped me having a relationship and going to the movies stopped after 4 days of no smoking which is amazing.
The side effects are nothing compared to the healthier feeling you have not smoking.
