Are any of you using Chantix or heard of it?

I have read the side effects on Webmd.com but I would like to know what you guys think (the ones that are actually taking it or have friends, family that are on it) Thanks.

    If its the anti smoking drug the worst side effect is disturbed sleep. If you can cope with this then it does work for some people. Put it in search for more answers.

    The manufacturer stopped marketing it aggressively after the FDA issued a statement in february, saying that there had been dozens of suicides and hundreds of instances of suicidal behavior reported to them by physicians working with people on the drug. The FDA's statement said it was increasingly becoming an unavoidable conclusion that the Chantix was involved in these behaviors. You might want to try something else. Or, if you feel lucky, get the chantix quick before they pull it off the market.

    I have heard of Chantix actually.My mom took it.She tried it,and at first it worked for almost a month.She said when she would smoke it would make her feel like she didn't want it and kinda sick....but after awhile she just got used to it and it didn't help her so she stopped taking it.Especially After they discontinued it!!!!
