For those of you as stupid as I to start smoking, have you heard of the drug Zyban. I've heard a lot of good things about it. What it does is it make you somewhat nautious (sp?) when you have a cigarette. I visited their website, "www.zyban.com" and apparantely, if you have seizure, do not take it because it supposedly lowers the seizure threshold.

Has anyone heard of this or similar drugs?
