Hello Folks,

I started taking Chantix 10 days ago. My cravings have reduced some but I am giving myself some leg room for my quit date. I am targeting 5 days from now. I have been smoking 1 to 1 1/2 packs a day for more than 30 years. As mentioned before by someone in this thread, I practiced quitting several times over the years and always ended up caving in. I am keeping my fingers crossed.

My difficulty is with side effects. I am getting every one of them. Disturbed sleep, nausea, heartburn, etc. I cannot even drink my coffee in the am because of the vomiting factor. I can normally take every prescribed drug on the planet without ANY side effects so this is new territory for me. Anybody have any suggestions that might help????Please?
