"The last drug approved for smoking cessation, varenicline, marketed as Champix in Spain, you must update its prospectus to warn doctors and patients that try to quit smoking, with or without the drug-increased risk of suicidal thoughts and attitudes, "according to the agency that regulates medicines in Europe, the EMEA. The Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use of the agency said in a statement that it is necessary to provide this information, to increase awareness of cases of attempted suicide have been reported in patients using varenicline to break our addiction to nicotine.
The drug was approved by the EMEA in September 2006 and sold in 17 countries EU, plus Iceland and Norway. The regulatory authorities had long been considering the possibility of haceresta recommendation after receiving several reports that warned of "suicide attempts in injecting the drug, which has proven very effective for the abandonment of snuff." The EMEA warns, however, it is difficult to know whether these attempts are due to the use of Champix, and the fact that quitting smoking can depress people, especially if there is a prior mental problems. The EMEA had warned doctors of the risks of this drug to mental illness.
In my opinion this shows the great addictive power of nicotine and high psychological dependence that may create. Quitting smoking is healthy, but if this causes you depression, I think they should take it easy. I took 2 years smoking, and cost me much to leave as lay constants. But he finally got, and after two months without a single puff, and I did not want anymore to retest the damn drug. The best advice I can give is that you seriously want to quit, and not get discouraged if you turn to fall. The temptation is strong but there are people around you that supports you and who cares, I'm quite sure that what you get. ! Much mood and decided to leave, I assure you you will not regret!.
