Advantages: clear, work for me, small, come in stages Disadvantages: itching, numbness to inserted area
I have recenly tried to quit smoking which i have finally succeeded, but before i managed this i always struggled in finding a product which will suit me and help me. Gum tasted horrible and made me want to throw up, the inhalors available didnt help me at all, so i thought i would try patches. These patches have helpmed me loads, i only wore them for a week but anyone that needs them longer the product has three stages to slowly withdraw the nicotine ... ...your mind and body. The only problem i had myself was putting the patch on my arm, as it made my arm go numb and very uncomfortable, but then i inserted it onto my upper thigh and the only problem was itching which lasted only 10 minutes. I would recommend these patches to anybody trying to quit, it depends on the person if it works but it certainly worked for me, and there also see through for people who consider the look!! So enjoy and good luck ...
Advantages: small enough for pocket Disadvantages: doesnt work
I am really sorry to say that after several attempts to stop smoking, this was by far the least successfull. You were supposed to replace your cigarettes with puffing on one fo these plastic pen lid-a-likes. You could suck throuigh it like a straw, which left you feeling youd just breathed fresh air. Its not enough to stop the craving in the least. I used this product along with smoking very little for alteast 3 weeks. I felt more bad tempered than ...

Review of Pfizer Champix
Advantages: Helps you to quit smoking! I found it helped with food cravings Disadvantages: Funny taste to begin with
I was recommended these by my GP when visiting their 'stop smoking' clinic. I found the lozenges very useful and help with any cravings. They come in 4mg for heavier smokers and 2mg for the milder smoker. The flavours are either plain (taste a bit sweet) or mint flavour (Minty!). You are meant to place one between your cheek and gums and alternate between each side of the mouth, they slowly dissolve in about 30 mins or so. The great thing I found ... ...as you cannot eat or drink when you have one in your mouth. The taste takes a short while to get used to (a bit spicey maybe?) but not long. You start with 1 lozenge every 1 - 2 hours then gradually reduce the amount you have over a period of time (The pack comes with instructions). Overall I found this to be a good product and have given up for nearly 2 months!! ...
Advantages: Cheaper than cigarettes Disadvantages: Itching, pulls on muscles
Well I tried these very patches around two and half years ago and I have given up smoking, my last cigarette was January 6th 2006. I started off on the heavy strength. The patches themselves last a full day from morning till night. The main problem I had with them was when your body craves the nicoteen you feel your energy pulling the nicoteen out of the patch. There is also an itching sensation. It is advisable not to wear them to bed as they can ... ...you really want to stop they are a great help in the battle against smoking. My program included patches and the support of a nurse and I have never been tempted since. The patches are transparrent and are a little on the large side. they are only advisable for heavy smokers as it is possible to have a nicoteen overdose. Well without these and the support of the nurse I'd probably still be a smoker. ...
