A member asked:
I'm trying to quit smoking. dr. says chantix isn't a good idea from past problems with depression and migraines. any suggestions?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Have to be careful: Chantix is effective, but I do see that you have depression, and Chantix can definitely make this worse. It has also been associated with suicide attempts. So, I would be very careful with Chantix in your case. Better to talk about this in detail with your doctor.
