A lot more sleep

After being a non-smoker for 4 weeks on Champix, I've not found the urges overwhelming. The vivid dreams were fun but are now abating. I'm still fining that I'm sleeping much more than usual and enjoying nana naps as well. I hope that's a reported side-effect?

Hi Oztony,

I used Champix when I attempted a quit a very long time ago. Although that attempt failed and I now use patches (successfully for 71 day now), I do remember needing to sleep a lot and nap when I was taking it. I couldn't tell you how long this sleep need goes for as I stopped taking the pills and went back to smoking. Perhaps you should discuss this with your doctor too.

Good luck!!!

Hi Crasher!

Thanks for sharing your experience. I'll see how I go. So far the cravings have been manageable, so I'd like to continue progresses.

All the best!

Tony
