I know a lot of people that have tried to quit smoking, but they have not been successful. I know I will let them know about Chantix. Now we should look at the dose options.

When you first start taking Chantix you will be prescribed a low does. The reason why is because your doctor wants to know how it will affect you before he/she increases your dosage. Your doctor may increase your dosage as time passes that way you will get the best results from it. Most of the time the length of the medication will be about twelve weeks. Now I guess we should look at the cost of the drug.

Chantix is usually priced base on dosages you need. From the research I did the price starts at $148.00 and goes all the way up to $441.00. I know this can get very expensive, but some people would say that it is worth it. If you think about it then you will wind up spending about this much on cigarettes a year so why not just trade in the cigarettes and take the prescription. At least you will be saving your health and the health of all of those around you. I guess you are all wondering how Chantix works. I will now let you know.

Chantix is supposed to have some kind of chemicals in it that are supposed to make you want to give up the cigarette pack.

Your doctor will be able to tell you step by step how Chantix is supposed to work. If you do not see any results then you should let your doctor know. Who is supposed to take Chantix and who isn't?

The answer to the above question is simple. People who have a history of kidney disease, or a history of mental illness then you should consult your doctor before you take this medication. Pregnant women should not take this because it can affect unborn babies. No one younger than 18 should take Chantix and also women that are breastfeeding are not recommended taking Chantix because no one knows whether or not it is passed through breast milk. If you are anyone else that does not have any of these conditions then you are more than likely a great candidate for Chantix.

The side effects of Chantix are not too severe unless you have one of the conditions named above. They are nausea, stomach pain, indigestion, vomiting, constipation, gas, weakness, increased appetite, and unpleasant taste in your mouth, headache, or sleep problems. You should let your doctor know if you are having any of these side effects because he/she may recommend that you stop taking Chantix.
