My OH has been taking Champix for just over 2 weeks now, the packet says smokers usually stop between days 8 and 14 but although he has cut down quite a lot, he doesn't seem anywhere near quitting altogether. He says he finds it easier during the day than in the evenings and has some days better than others. Not a lot of support from the doctor either apart from just prescribing repeat prescritions.
Was just wondering how other people found it?

I tried it for 4 weeks-no use at all to me.
Its meant to remove the pleasure and desire to smoke-nurse said i would loose interest in cigarettes and quit that way.
I found i was still smoking the same amount.
At least no side effects as when i tried zyban.

Im going to try the e cigarette - its still smoking but safer
