Common side effect: Nicotine receptors are widespread in the brain, and Chantix acts on several of these receptors. Nightmares or vivid dreams do not occur in everyone, but they are very common. More serious side effects, such as worsening depression with suicidal thoughts can also occur, but are not common. If side effects would cause you to stop the medication, please talk to your doctor about alternatives.
