Chantix side effects attorneys are representing individuals who have suffered injury as a result of the side effects of Chantix.

Chantix is a stop-smoking aid developed and marketed by Pfizer. The active ingredient in Chantix is varenicline, usually in the form of varenicline tartrate. Chantix is indicated for (recommended for) smoking cessation and is taken as a pill. Smoking need not be entirely stopped before Chantix is begun. The varenicline in Chantix interferes with the process by which nicotine stimulates the nervous system. Through this process, Chantix works to reduce both nicotine cravings and the pleasurable effects of nicotine when ingested.

Chantix side effects have made almost as much news as the intended effects. Chantix side effects attorneys have met with Chantix users who have reported side effects ranging from unpleasant to dangerous. The more common Chantix side effects include nausea and vomiting, disruption of sleep patterns and strange dreams. Less common but of far greater concern are side effects such as hostility and aggression, depression and suicidal thoughts. Anger, mania, hallucinations, paranoia, confusion and other psychiatric and emotional problems have also been reported.

After its release in 2006, controversy and publicity around previously unrecognized symptoms of Chantix began to circulate. This awareness continued to grow as more and more cases of serious Chantix side effects came to light. While there was initially some thinking that nicotine withdrawal could explain some of the psychiatric and emotional symptoms, the FDA eventually mandated a Black Box warning, the strongest it can give, for Chantix.

If you have taken Chantix to stop smoking and have experience side effects, you should speak to a Chantix side effects attorney about your case. The potential dangers of serious Chantix side effects have been well-documented and should be taken seriously. Some organizations (such as the FAA) have banned the use of Chantix by their employees for fear of changes in behavior. If you experience serious Chantix side effects, contact your physician immediately and speak with a Chantix side effects attorney as soon as possible.
