Stop Smoking Pills

Smoking is a horrible addiction that affects millions of people. Many times people spend years trying to quit. Popular solutions include nicotine patches and gum. While many times they do work, they also contain nicotine. It's the smoke and tar that causes cancer, not the nicotine. However the nicotine is the part of cigarettes that are addictive. These methods work by providing the body with nicotine, while keeping it away from the harmful chemicals. However, many people want to quite the addiction all together. What's the use of quitting when you'll just end up being addicted to the gum? But now there's hope. Recently a stop smoking pill has been introduced that will help you control your desire to smoke and contains no nicotine whatsoever. Now it's possible to be free of the addiction all together.



Zyban was the first pill on the market and is the most popular. Many people will remember this as a way to treat depression. Zyban gives people the same type of feeling as smoking by increasing levels of norepinephrine and dopamine. Don't worry there are other alternatives. Varenicline (or Chantix) is a newer drug on the market. It works the same way as Zyban does. In both cases it's recommended that you start taking the drugs a week or 2 before you try to quit.



Both of these drugs can have some pretty harsh side effects. This is why it's important to consult your physician before taking any medication. He'll be able to advise you on the proper dosages and if they'll react with any other medications you may be taking.
