I don't know for sure, Mike, but I suspect it could be. I used it and
found it was very helpful in my quit. Their webpage is www.chantix.com
and you might find out more there. I do know you need a doctor's
prescription for it, so your doctor ought to know.

As far as I know Champix is the European name for Chantix that is
distributed in the US & Canada. I might be wrong though.

You are right about that, Tihomir. It's all about marketing not new
drugs.
