I tried Champix and Zyban - both unsucessfully.
The electronic cigarette http://www.vipelectroniccigarette.co.uk is
officially not sold as smoking cessation aid.
The fact the cigarette contains nicotine and provides all the actions
of regular cigarette seems to me though a substitute.
The electronic cigarette does not generate first hand or second hand
smoke.
Legal to smoke anywhere in the UK.
Smoking ban exempt - Smoke it bars, pubs, clubs and cafes.
The e-cigarette has to be one of the best inventions of the century.
I hope so cos champix did absolutely nothing for me either and had to stop
taking it to actually give up lol.
