QuiltTrip,
Generally, we recommend you follow the entire course of treatment. Your fatigue is most likely related to your quit not your medication.
Some causes of fatigue during a quit include:
* Increased oxygen supply & blood flow
* A drop in metabolism. This can make you feel like you have no energy. (Nicotine gave your metabolism a boost.)
* Nicotine is a stimulant. It temporarily increased alertness and concentration.
* Your body is healing itself and it does most of its healing while we sleep.
Please remember your fatigue is temporary and until your body becomes adjusted to all the changes quitting brings, take naps or go to bed early if you feel the need.
