Zyban
30 Answers
I'm hoping to talk the quack into prescribing Zyban to help me quit the wicked weed.
Has anyone else been on this stuff and did it work for them? Any side effects?

Mmmmm if the thought of your lungs stinking of odourous foul cancer and your breath smelling like a smoked ar5e isn't enough to make you WANT to stop, a few little pills isn't going to change much is it?
Be strong, be self-respectful and imagine a long and healthy life wthout a stupid 3 inch white cancer-giving tube of puss-inducing sickness sticking out from your mouth.

I don't think bobtheduck is allowed to prescribe anything BDW ! :oP
Just think of how much this will change your life tho, I wish you the best of luck and although there'll be times you might go back to it, just keep on trying, it'll be worth it in the end - make sure the money you waste on them goes into a piggy bank and treat yourself every so often for doing so well.
Good luck :)

Wow, turn my back for 5 minutes and have 6 answers! Wardy, I was enjoying my lunch until I read your answer!
Anyway, as someone famous once said, giving up smoking is easy, I've done it a thousand times. I'm guessing those with the more revolting answers have never been smokers and know not of the difficulties of quitting. Yes we know the dangers, and yes we realise what a foul and disgusting habit it is, so we don't need our noses rubbing in it.
Thanks for your positive response wonderwoman. That's what I was hoping for.

I am a refomed smoker, I stopped because I wanted to, that and because the Army sent me to Kosovo, and we couldnt get them for the 1st six weeks after the invasion. I agree with you, stopping is easy, the hard part is staying stoped. As I said my friend, good luck, you'll need it in spades
PS the first 3 weeks at the hardest, after that it gets easier

If a confirmed smoker like me can give it up so can you and pay no attention to all those perfect paragons of virtue.It isn't easy and I managed it cold turkey but I was a miserable cow for ages until it got completely out of my system .It's all very well for people to talk who have never smoked .Instead of being unsupportive they should think themselves lucky they never got hooked on it .
Good luck ....You can do it if you really want to and in whatever way suits you.Your GP is there to help you and I am sure he will give you good advice on the best method for you.
Don't give up giving up ! xx

BIG DOGS....im sure that the �6.60 you pay for prescriptions wont cover anywhere near the cost of you stopping smoking, or the amount you pay into the nhs, good job when its banned. DIVE GIRL, im far from perfect but i dont believe this sort of thing should be able on the nhs, people are dying from cancer(through no fault of thier own) but are unable to get cancer drugs
BDW, I'll tell you what worked for me.
I took a day off work, a packet of Nicotinell 4mg fruit gum, and went out into the countryside with neither fags nor matches. I spent the entire day doing nothing but walking and 'not smoking'. The sense of achievement on waking up after a day clear of fags was just the stimulus required.

Ah yes ..but ...gina32..do you agree with drug addicts getting treatment on the NHS ....they dole them out methadone you know. All out of your contributions !!
Or would you rather they just ignored them and made no effort to help people get their lives back,
So what you are in effect saying is... that anyone with self inflicted injury should not be given treatment on the NHS. eg. smokers ..drug addicts ..gluttons and anyone else who YOU feel is a burden on society.
What about people who play sport and then end up with cartilidge trouble , twisted ankles,broken legs and so on ..are they to be denied treatment because they brought it on themselves ?
Surely prevention is better than cure
.I think the small amount for Zyban on prescription is a far better thing if it helps people to kick the weed than the huge amount that they have would have to spend on a major op because of the effects of smoking.
The government wouldn't have put these measures in place and the NHS wouldn't promote non smoking programmes if they didn't feel it was going some way to help people to give up, thereby cutting the bill for smoking related diseases.

Personally I do not think we should have an NHS full stop. Why should I pay for others?
The cost of private health care is cheaper than what I paid on NI stamp.
So all my working life I had a commissioned pension and private healthcare, yet I pay for the peasant classes.
Can somebody explain to me why i should?
The point I am making is smokers should be exempt from ALL NHS services. Instead of smoking cancer sticks all the time, perhaps invest in private health care for about �15 per week. What is that, 3 packets?
