The dr suggested I try to quit smoking so I asked what would help with that process. I started taking chantix the day after. First the nightmares began, along with nausea, vomiting. I began to feel rapid heartbeat, and blacked out 2 times. I called dr and had to wear a heart monitor for 24 hours, but nothing showed up. I missed weeks of work at a time from severe depression. I absolutely didn't care to do anything. I have been working at my place of employment for 6 yrs, and have never missed as much work as I have since taking chantix. I was put on a depression med but as of the last 2 weeks have weened myself off them and can actually say I am starting to feel like a person again. Please anyone wishing to qiut smoking, don't take chantix, do it the old fashioned way like my husband did, willpower. By the way, I am still smoking.

I vomited every 2 1/2 to three hours for 1 day went to the Dr., who gave me a shot. three hours later I was vomiting again. after 2 more days of practically continuous vomiting, I landed in the emergency room for 10 hours....obviously, I lived through this but I will warn everyone I know to not take Chantix. I feel sure that this was the reason. I'm not a person who vomits easily. Haven't vomited since.

I have Heart failure and Dysarthria. I went from no health problems to having to file for disability. That is another story all together. That drug is a killer and hurts people.

I tried it for about 6 months. Later the next year I was diagnosed with diabetes. I am 44 years old and have never had a problem with diabetes before taking Chantix. I have also had a major mood change while taking the drug. I became very depressed and had thoughts of suicide. I started taking Chantix in 2006 around August. I tried it for about 6 months.

She committed suicied. We the family was not aware of possible suicide atemps. But she had not acted any different than before she started taking it. i dont see how they can continue to sell a medication that you might cause you to kill your self. in our case it is to late to watch for suicidel actions because when some one decides to kill them selves you dont have time to do anything I do not recomind any one to take Chantix my mother took her life while on this medication.

I noticed that, among other side effects, I was breaking out in hives. I stopped taking the drug but the hives have continued. I have seen many doctors, none of which pay any attention to the fact that my problem started when I took the drug. Has anyone else had this problem? I am desperate to find a cure for these hives and welts and also swelling of my face. I took Chantix for about 2 months. I noticed that, among other side effects, I was breaking out in hives.
