Side Effects of Nicotrol NS –
With the nasal spray, nicotine is inhaled through your nose and passes into your blood stream. This nicotine takes the place of the nicotine you would otherwise get from smoking. In this way, the withdrawal effects of not smoking are less severe. Then, as your body adjusts to not smoking, the use of nicotine nasal spray is decreased gradually over several weeks. Finally, use is stopped altogether.
Children, pregnant women, and nonsmokers should not use nicotine nasal spray because of harmful effects.

Chantix is a bona fide miracle drug. And the weird dreams? Beautiful, living color. I miss the dreams.

Chantix made my father-in-law hear & see things......while awake. He became paranoid and afraid to be alone, all in less than 10 days. I'm all set.

I didn't have any problem with Chantix but then I hear voices anyhow.
