“Chantix is a very dangerous drug.”

It sure is. I know two otherwise mentally healthy people hospitalized for acute psychotic reactions caused by this drug.

I took it for two days. I went into the darkest, deepest pit of despair and depression I have EVER experienced.

Fortunately I recognized what was causing it and quit taking it. I was just fine in a day or two.

I had high hopes that it would live up to its claims, but now realize that this drug was released without nearly enough testing.

Yup.. I would rather catch every disease known to man than EVER take Chantrix, I had a friend of mine end up trying to kill himself after being on it one week.

Once again the big pharma thinks it knows whats right for us.. and once again, they put out a dangerous drug.. Chantix.

Absolutely. My Dr. gave my husband and I a scrip for it. I went on the internet and read about it. There is no way I would put that poison in my body. I read hundreds of posts from people who were taking it. Literally all of them were having side effects, from mild to severe. More severe than mild. My son took a drug to quit smoking that was similar. He did quit for over a year but went back to smoking again. I guess it works while taking it but the urges come back after you stop taking the stuff.
