I'm not feeling anything. Are you feeling anything?

Thanks for checking in!

Jake (S.O.) and I are both reporting what could possibly be a slight uptick in mood, which could possibly be related to the Chantix, or, it could just be because it's Friday and the end of a very busy week. No nausea or other side effects, except that I felt kind of itchy last night & I freaked myself out a little wondering about it - but I think it was just from reading Stan's saga.

I am actually smoking more than usual; maybe this is because the nicotine isn't quite doing its thing? It's so hard to tell right now what's biochemical and what I'm noticing simply because I'm paying attention.

Either way, I'm really excited to up my dose this evening. Ready, Tabatha?! Jake and I are planning to stay on the lower dose (.5 mg 2Xday) for a few days longer than the prescription suggests, and adjust our quit dates accordingly. If we feel like Chantix is working for us at that dose, we may not go up to the higher one. But we're both willing to do what it takes to get, and stay, quit.

More soon.

I smoked more some days at the start of Chantix, too. In fact, that was part of why I didn't quit until Day 13 because some days it didn't quite feel like it was "working." Different people experience it differently to some degree, I think. Just keep going!

The superb working mechanism of _Pfizer’s anti-smoking medicine chantix makes it a highly sought after drug in the market and further Chantix information available in the website http://www.chantixmagic.com/ make it apparent that the drug acts as a better quit smoking medication that Zyban and other smoking cessation treatments. So, get hold of Chantix right now and trigger off smoking cessation!

The main doses of chantix medication are 0.5mg and 1mg tablets. At the start of the treatment, you need to take the lower dose and then increase it after few weeks. The recommended dose of chantix should be swallowed as a whole with a glass of water. The treatment period with chantix medication extends to about 12 weeks. http://www.chantixhome.com/
