An anti smoking medication for men please Chantix?

An anti smoking medication for men please Chantix?My husband was just prescribed a new medication called Chantix monthly pks. Sometimes he smokes a pack or close to a pack a day. He wants to quit so bad. He smoked most of his life, he is 54 years old. Has anyone tried this medication and did anyone try other medications like welbutrin and how did Chantix work for you? he did not take welbutrin because the side efrfects was scary and other folks said they had a bad expierience witrh it so Chantix, one person who smoked gave a very positive opinion on this. What is yours? Please help with your answer. Please don't say self control, the withdrawls are more than a non smoker can runderstand. I read it is simular to herion withdrawl. ( Not that we would know what that would bw like except for reading about it.) yes, a cigarette, it is that way for those that don't understand so those of you that do or did, how did this medication perform and was there any negativive side effects??? Chantix??? Thank you.

My husband and I are both taking Chantix. We can tell a BIG difference in the amount that we smoke. It is an ongoing treatment but we have been on ours for about a month and we have went from about 3 packs a day down to maybe 1 pack. I know several people that are taking it and they have all had great success with the program.

Chantix is a great new anti-smoking medication with few side effects. People generally lose the cigarette cravings reasonably quickly after starting Chantix.

I quit 12/26/06 using Chantix. It really helped me in dealing with the cravings. If I were to rate cravings on a scale from 1 to 10 with 10 being the worst. Chantix turned the 10's into a 2. I did have some gas and stomach aches while taking it but they were not a big deal. I only took it for 30 days total and thought it worked great.
I still had to deal with little cravings but I could function fairly normal for those first two weeks after quiting, which are the hardest to get through.
