I saw a warning about that on TV and meant to look it up! I agree with one statement from the drug company on this one, I would think quitting smoking would cause some problems that might not necessarily be from the drug, I can tell you first hand I had a really BAD attitude for the first couple weeks after quitting and I quit cold turkey, no drugs. I wouldn't say I was suicidal, but when you take a crutch away like that and have nothing to take it's place, sometime stress can be too much for some I guess. It is worth knowing before you start taking the drug though.


ANd good luck quitting, I can't even imagine being a smoker anymore! (But I still miss it, 10 years later.)
