What is Chantix?
  1. Default

    Varenicline (trade name Chantix in the USA and Champix in Canada, Europe and other countries, marketed by Pfizer, usually in the form of varenicline tartrate), is a prescription medication used to treat smoking addiction. Varenicline stimulates nicotine receptors more weakly than nicotine does, that is, it is a nicotinic receptor partial agonist. In this respect it is similar to cytisine and different from the nicotinic antagonist, bupropion, and nicotine replacement therapies (NRTs) like nicotine patches (commonly, "the patch") and nicotine gum. As a partial agonist it both reduces cravings for and decreases the pleasurable effects of cigarettes and other tobacco products. Through these mechanisms it can assist some patients to quit smoking.

    Is it really helpful? Did it actually help anyone? My husband quit smoking almost 4 years ago, and before that he tried smoking pouches, inhaler, ets, but nothing really helped. Until he decided that's enough and he does not want to smoke anymore and in one day he stooped and that since has not been smoking.

    Chantix (varenicline) is a smoking cessation medicine. It is used together with behavior modification and counseling support to help you stop smoking. Chantix works in the brain to block the pleasurable effects of smoking. This helps to decrease your desire to keep smoking.

    Default chantix

    "I am currently taking chantix and I have been smoke free for 10 days. This is totally amazing to me and I never thought in a million years I would be able to quit smoking.

    I have been attempting it several times a year for the last 10 years. Finally I am smoke free.
    I did a lot of reasearch before starting Chantix and although the side effects are a concern they did not stop me from trying it out.

    So far I have been having funky dreams, and I have been a bit hyper during the day. I want less coffee too and this is a good thing.

    Chantix is awesome!" I got it without prescription with medicinesmexico.com

    Chantix is a smoking cessation medication. Do not use it in larger amounts or for longer than recommended by your doctor.
