52 years smoker here. I took Chantix for 3 weeks and stoped smoking. I took Chantix for 5 more weeks and stoped the Chantix. Nicotine is out of the system. The rest is mental and up to you. Chantix is a great aid.

Joseph, Please keep in mind that Chantix continues to stimulate your brain in the same way smoking did long after you quit. If you stopped taking Chantix, you may experience more cravings. If your experiencing side effects as a result of taking this medication, your doctor is the best authority to advise you. Studies have shown that those who experienced side effects only required a reduction in dosage to eliminate/reduce these side effects. Lastly, it may take a few weeks before all withdrawal symptoms subside. This may be why you're still feeling lousy. Remember that every quit is different and that some bodies take longer to recover than others. Danielle __________________________ The SSC Support Team
