chantix

Avatar f tn You are talking about Chantix (Varenicline tartrate) that should be available worldwide. If not, ask your doctor for other suggestion for quitting smoking.
Avatar f tn Hello, Chantix (varenicline) and Zyban (bupropion) are the only two non-nicotine medications approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for smoking cessation; both are available in pill form and only by prescription. Chantix received FDA approval in 2006; Zyban was approved in 1997. These drugs can be effective tools, but users need to be aware of some potentially serious side effects. You can try that and they are very cheap in some pharmacy's.
Avatar f tn How did things go with the smoking? Were you able to stop? I think the prescription meds like Chantix are supposed to be very beneficial. So, I'm wondering where things are at now, a year later.

How Buprenorphine Works Buprenorphine (Subutex) is an FDA approved drug that is used to treat opiate (narcotic) dependence and prevent its relapse, to decrease the withdrawal symptoms when getting off opiates and in some specific circumstances to treat chronic pain.
1327604 tn?1281866607 Everyone on here has struggled with and most continue to struggle with it and the ones who succeed are the ones who have decided that not only do they have to quit, but they want it just as badly. It's not going to work any other way. The more you know about your addiction, the better your chances are. Most of us smoke(d) because of stress and anxieties. The physical addiction is over in 72 hours but it's the emotional one that needs to be addressed. Try reading the articles at whyquit.
Avatar n tn If you can kick the cigs, you can kick anything. Lots of encouragement helps too. My kids used to tell me every day how well I was doing, even though I was really grumpy. I would say at around 9 days he will reach his peak, and really be climbing the walls, but after that it gradually gets easier. After 21 days I hardly thought about cigarettes. I also drank lots of fresh orange juice which seemed to help.
Avatar f tn Honestly, how do YOU react to HER when she's bad? Do you react loudly, wave your arms around, yell, get mad? They learn their reactions from us, and I am NOT saying that you're a bad parent (so please don't think so..we've all been there!) but if you want her to listen calmly, respond calmly, and learn discipline, you need to evaluate how you approach her. Most kids have the odd tantrum. This is OK and natural.
Avatar f tn I think it actually works we just did the deed and wow I hope it keeps up wish me luck ladies
Avatar n tn suboxone is a lifesaver, there is too much negative mis-information out there, how can ANYTHING be as dangerous as addiction itself...? i do believe in working the treatment with therapy, i feel it is a must!!! but feeling well enough, not high, not sick just normal so we are able to tend to these underlying issues that we have ignored for so long is just such a good feeling...suboxone DOES work!! CONGRATULATIONS TO] YOU!!! and keep up the good work... i am also on sub...
Avatar f tn Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
Avatar f tn Is there nothing in this world that excites you - that makes you glad to be alive? Do you know how short life is and how precious each moment is? The drama and emotion of detox or finally coming to grips that your addiction is destroying your life can distort reality. You suggest that you've given up after only two years. I say that you've just started. You have too many days and too much joy ahead of you.
Avatar n tn Although I don't disagree with the alternative options, I would say that we must be very careful if using anything herbal. We are not sure of the full make up of some products and it could interact with your normal medication. So just stay safe along those lines. We all hate benzos. But at times we have to submit to the fact that they are the only form of medication that do the trick. I have been hooked on xanax in the past and it was a nightmare tablet.
