chantex problem

[vesta_f]

I took chantex for 3 days and on day 2 i was on the sofa with the WORST headach i have ever had... it has been almost 2 weeks since i stopped taking the medication and i'm still suffereing from headachs and a full numb face..
has any one else had this problem?

I'm sorry to hear that : ( I would get myself to the doctor right away. I don't know that headaches are a "known" side effect, but you don't want to chance it.

So many different opinions on Chantix and it's a shame that it doesn't work for everyone the way it worked for me. I had no problems other then an occasional upset stomach. For me, it was a miracle drug, though so many have complained of many things.

Please write again and let us all know how things are going, good luck!

I tried chantix...I don't remember having headaches but I do remember that as the days passed I felt more and more "weird"...by the eighth day I found myself just sitting on my couch all curled up like my muscles were contracting and I was just kinda like a zombie. I decided I would not continue to take the chantix since it felt like I was becoming catatonic or something.
I wouldn't be surprised though if it's the med causing your headache. Did you get to the doctor yet? Hope you are feeling better.

I never took this but have heard horror stories as well as success stories. I am sensitive to any med so I never wanted to go there. I would be a horror story! Just depends on the individual and their personal reaction.
