Time to try and quit again.

Well done Marco … and your daughter !


It’s good also to know that Dedworth’s “ Dummie “ site ( # 23 ) doesn’t disagree with my post 10 !



There’s reassuring news about “ Champix “ ( varenicline ) in this week’s British Medical Journal. Obviously it should still only be prescribed after consultation with your doctor, and medical advice may be needed if serious side effects DO develop.

Thanks Doc
Just got time to read that very interesting article you posted from the BMJ and would recommend this to others who perhaps may have been taken in by the scare stories about Champix.

Conclusions There is no evidence of an increased risk of suicidal behaviour in patients prescribed varenicline or bupropion compared with those prescribed nicotine replacement therapy. These findings should be reassuring for users and prescribers of smoking cessation medicines.

Yes there are side effects but apart from a few strange dreams and some disturbed nights sleep I've been fine. Having tried various products over the years I can honestly say that nothing has come close to this. These have taken away all the cravings for nicotine which all the other products simply feed. I know it's early days yet but I think I may have cracked it. The next big test for me is when we take the drug away
