The pharmaceutical industry is making constant efforts to come up with drugs, which can cure the habit of smoking. Many drugs have surfaced the market from time to time that has helped smokers to quit smoking. However, one drug that has broken all records of popularity is Champix Varenicline. One of the pharmaceutical giants, Pfizer, manufactured this drug, which contains Varenicline as its active ingredient.

Varenicline (the active ingredient in Champix) binds to the nicotine receptors in the brain. As a result of this process the nicotine receptors will be satisfied and will not send out craving signals which would lead a smoker to desire a cigarette. If you do end up smoking while on Champix you are unlikely to derive any pleasure from it. This should allow you to break the habit over the 12 week period that you are on the medication. Some people even feel nausea if they have a cigarette while on Champix.

Clinical trial results demonstrated that 44% of patients being treated with Champix were able successfully to give up smoking over the 12 week period. This compared very favorably against Zyban, the only other oral smoking cessation treatment, which had a 29.5% success rate over the same period.

Directions for use
Champix comes in tablet form and is taken for a period of 12 weeks. Your course of champix treatment will comprise of a starter pack which contains 11 x 0.5mg white tablets and 14 x 1mg light blue tablets.

Side effects
