Guest guest Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 Maybe you're just ready to quit, sure hope so! Quitting smoking was one of the hardest things I ever did, best of luck.

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 I'm not Shell, but I can tell you that Wellbutrin (spelling) helped me a lot. Back in '99, when I quit, Kaiser was giving it and there was a class you could take with it. I never took the class, but I quit anyway. Good luck to you when you decide to quit.

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 He should use Wellbutrin or Ziban--not sure if I'm spelling either of them right. I had smoked for 33 years, and I quit using that drug. They are the same, one is generic and one is the brand name. Good luck to him. LaWanda At 09:19 AM 7/10/05, you wrote: >Congratulations SHell!!

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 Me sticking my snout in again...Just an FYI--Wellbutrin and Zyban can be very dangerous mixed with other drugs, including SSRI's (Paxil, Prozac, Zoloft, Celexa). I had considered trying Zyban, but can't because I am on Zoloft & Xanax for my anxiety/panic disorder. If there are no drug interactions to worry about, I've heard that Wellbutrin/Zyban can be very effective. pascha > > > Hello, > > > > > > well I have not had a cigarette in 4 days!!

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 Well if you're bipolar, as is my sister, then you can't take it either. As you say, it works well for anyone who isn't taking any drugs with which it is contraindicated. Thanks for the info about the other psychotropic drugs having an adverse effect with it, didn't know that. Fortunately wasn't taking any of those when I took the stop smoking meds.
