In the face of the adverse effects of Chantix, you may want to consider the milder Zyban. Zyban is one of a group of antidepressant drugs that inhibit the reuptake of the serotonin neurotransmitter. When secreted, these chemicals in your body cause a spike in your pleasure-seeking behavior, which makes you 'crave' nicotine.



Zyban is the brand name for the substance bupropoin, which is not without its own side effects. Offshoot symptoms of bupropion include dizziness and fainting, dehydration, mouth dryness, difficulty urinating, and drowsiness. While on bupropion, you may want to abstain from milks and cheese because they set off a whole new range of side effects.



Scopolamine and Atarax are two drugs that can help you stop smoking too, except that they are not orally administered drugs like the previously mentioned ones. These two, blended together into a single SMART injection are given to you intravenously. Although they are individually FDA-approved, the cocktail is still in the review process. They work well to help your smoking cessation efforts, but they also have side effects similar to those mentioned above.



The fact that a drug works and saves you from the worse potential effects of nicotine is often reason enough to keep you in the program. Nicotine causes irregular heartbeats, high blood pressure, nausea and vomiting, and is a poison used in most insecticides.



The other chemicals in tobacco proffer little more than increased risks of cancer and heart disease, which should convince you to stay with the program until you don't need the drug anymore. Smoking cessation is not an easy thing to achieve, but there are people doing it all around you. Perhaps it is time for you also to give it what it takes and never smoke another cigarette again.
