Zyban, does it really work?

Question:

I am trying to quit smoking and i was wondering if anyone here has tried Zyban?

Does it work? Do you feel nauseous? Did you gain weight?

Does it only sell on prescription? I am going to US and i was thinking of trying it.

Thanks,

Sam

Answers:
I used Zyban afew years ago, and yes it worked for me. I felt fine & didn't gain any weight. It is prescription here in Canada.
I quit for 6 months & then started smoking again. Stupid me!
I tried Zyban again & the 2nd time it made my heart do horrible things, like fluttering & sometimes pounding. The Dr made me quit taking the pills right away. I don't know why the first time I took it I was fine but?

Zyban worked for me, at least for 3 months. When I stopped taking the Zyban I went back to smoking. No nausea, no weight gain, got a prescription from my doctor.

No it doesn't work for smoking, nothing does except for determination to quit, I tried everything on the market and none of it works,, it is another way to get money from you.. Zyban gives you a calming effect which is supposed to help you tolerate quiting smoking,, but when you are trying to quit nothing calms you, so keep very busy so you will not think about smoking as much, and hold on to will power you will need it,, I also chewed on twillizers Candy's when the cravings got real bad,, after a month it got better with the cravings,, good luck

Sam, Zyban® does work for a lot of people. It did for me. I used the generic version Bupropion. The generic is much cheaper. It does require a doctors prescription. Another name it is sold under is Wellbutrin®.

I had no stomach upset.

I gained weight after quitting smoking, but I can't say it was due to the Bupropion. I had heart surgery the day I quit and was inactive for four days and off work for 2 ½ months. I think that was the biggest factor in my weight gain.

Committing to a light exercise plan at the same time will help by keeping your weight down and helping you deal with the urges. Nothing fancy, just thirty minutes a day. Walking, bike riding, what ever you enjoy.

Here is a link to give you information on Bupropion
