Right then, I got my 'Champix'

 

Here's how it goes. You take one 0.5mg tablet for three days, then two 0.5mg tablets for four days. At the end of week one, you stop smoking and you increase the dose to two 1.0mg tablets from then till the end of the course. I'll update as to how I am feeling...........

Hi Mr Lex

 

I have been off the ciggarettes for months now. Champix really does work. Sometimes it takes up to about day 14. You have NO craving and don't even think about smoking. The smell actually puts you off............

 

Wish hubby would give it a go .............. !!

A bit doggy more like mate, sounds like dog food to me :D

 

Hmmm that sounds familiar - I thought it was dog food too :D

 

(hides from CG's kinky boots)

I've been away from CAG for too long obviously. You do realise that you will have to wear your kinky boots for the Manc Meet CG :eek: We need proof :lol:

 

Right then, I got my 'Champix'

 

Here's how it goes. You take one 0.5mg tablet for three days, then two 0.5mg tablets for four days. At the end of week one, you stop smoking and you increase the dose to two 1.0mg tablets (that'll be the blue ones then "says Bo the Champix Pro" ;)) from then till the end of the course. I'll update as to how I am feeling...........

 

Hehehehe, that's what I thought Lexy :p It's the "stop smoking" bit that got me :D It took me about 2-3 weeks and a threat from the practice nurse, who said she would stop letting the doctor prescribe them for me, for me to stop entirely. Having said that, I just got up one Saturday morning and made my decision.

 

I had no side effects whatsoever with Champix and would definitely recommend them as they don't contain nicotine and merely work on the neurotransmitters in your brain telling you that you've already had a fag when you haven't :eek:

 

You go for it Lex, we're right behind you xx

 

PS - Can I borrow your shotgun???? :lol:

Well done Jake44,

 

Why don't you start a thread here and tell us about it ? I am sure it will help a lot of people who are thinking about going down this route. :D

 

I am really fired up about this Bo, looking forward to being *Fag free* again. I felt so much better last time.

Oh, very well done Jake - you go for it :)

 

Well, if it's any help Lex, the Champix are my favourite as far as stopping is concerned - I should be on commission here, I'd be minted :D

 

I'm watching your thread carefully as you are an inspiration to me because of your sheer determination to quit. If you can do it, then anyone can. I will get there one day and my sub to this thread will be a constant reminder of how I really need to get my act together and ditch the cigs 8)

 

Go get 'em tiger :lol:

It's really weird if I'm honest (just posting coz Lex isn't about ;)) but you don't feel any different when you first stop. You aren't getting any nicotine but it feels like you are as the Champix work on the neurotransmitters in your brain to tell you that you have had a fag even though you haven't - they are amazing IMO :)

Thanks Lex :wink:

 

I didnt give up til day 10, but could've done it before (was only cos i had some baccy left and didnt want to waste it lol)

 

The dry mouth is a problem but not major, just make sure you always take the am one with food or you will feel nauseous

 

Lula the dose in the 1 tablet doubles on day 5 then you start taking 2 from day 7 if i remember correctly although please bear in mind it was nearly a year ago for me now. ;)
