Is quit smoking dangerous?

Chantix is prescribed as a smoking cessation aid. The praises of Chantix include that it blocks the pleasant effects of nicotine on the human brain. Taken once or twice a day, while smoking or not, Chantix is said to rid you of any desire to light up. Well if you've taken Chantix or know someone who has, then you already know that whether you experience the horrifically dangerous side effects or not, there's just about nobody who gets through it without the nausea. But nausea wasn't going to stop anyone. Most people will trade in the deadly effects of cigarettes for some trial nausea. Smoking or depression? Smoking or suicidal thoughts? When does one risk outweigh the other? There are natural ways to stop! I for one am a firm believer in hypnosis. There are no side effects, not ever "rare" side effects! It's simply a state of deep relaxation. Who could say no? With the dangers that reach millions of Americans in a prescription drug era, there is a natural, completely safe alternative.

Everyone knows just how harmful smoking and other tobacco products can be. They can all be credited with cancer and many other health problems. What you probably don't know though is that some of the drugs on the market aimed at helping the smoker quit can be just as dangerous! Yes it's true. Some of you might already be aware of this. The FDA has issued a public health advisory to both the health care professionals and consumers of this products.Chantix are the main target of this alert. Some of the other popular ways of quitting are nicotine replacement such as the path or nicotine gum. These all are stimulants just like the nicotine you would smoke or chew. They are designed to help you slowly lose the need for nicotine. Does anybody see a possible addiction there? You have been smoking for a long time now, and just switching the form of nicotine that enters your body. Long term, the consequences are much more detrimental. They can even be fatal, and have been for many people. The toxic chemicals found in cigarettes can lead to many types of cancer, including lung cancer. Additionally, smoking cigarettes can lead to severe breathing problems, a risk for heart disease, wrinkles, increased risk for stomach ulcers and acid reflux disease, and a risk for gum disease.

If you won't stop smoking for yourself, then stop for those around you. Second hand smoke is just as dangerous, if not more, than first hand smoke. Additionally, smokers set bad examples for their children. Pregnant women who smoke put their unborn child at risk. Chantix works within the brain, affecting the portions of the brain that respond to nicotine. Chantix provides these portions of the brain the sensation of nicotine, allowing the patient to quit smoking without the difficult withdrawal symptoms. If smokers decide to smoke while taking Chantix, the drug will work to block the regular effect of nicotine. As the FDA continues to receive information on Chantix, the public will be notified of any important findings. The FDA will conduct further investigations into the connection between the use of Chantix and serious neuropsychiatry problems.
