Chantix (Varenicline)
Description:
Chantix is a newly released anti-smoking pill that is nicotine-free and approved by the FDA. Chantix works in two ways, by cutting the pleasure of smoking and reducing the withdrawal symptoms that lead smokers to light up over and over again. Chantix latches on to the same receptors in the brain that nicotine binds to when inhaled in cigarette smoke, an action that leads to the release of dopamine in the pleasure centers of the brain. Taking the drug blocks any inhaled nicotine from reinforcing that effect.
