Stop Smoking Remedies

I am in Georgia can someone tell me if medicare covers the smoking cessation drug chantix?

Why don’t health insurance companies cover smoking cessation products?

I’m really just whining here but if anyone has a true answer, I’d appreciate it. Health insurance companies want to charge me more because I smoke, but non of them cover Chantix, the patch, the gum, hypnosis, accupuncture—nothing!

They charge me more because I am a health risk, possible to cost the insurance company more in the future. So why not help me pay for things that might help me to quit, eventually lowering theirs and my costs?

WHY????

Has anyone ever become addicted to Commit smoking cessation lozenges?

starting off..your suppose to take one an hour and use it for no longer than 3 months but while I was able to quit smoking..I became addicted to the commit!!
OK..i found out how to get off Commit..just take TUMS..they have the same texture, same size, a couple of different flavors..i was on Commit for a year and now i am finally Commit free..talked to the Dr..he says taking TUMS is OK..so now i guess i am TOTALLY nicotine free!!!!!

Does anyone know how well the drug Chantix works for smoking cessation?

Toxic fumes after smoking cessation?

I recently quit smoking, and have noticed a rather nasty side effect from it – I have horrible smelling gas that has lasted since I quit (about a week). I have not changed my diet, or anything else, except that I have quit smoking (cold turkey – no crutch method). No patch, no prescriptions, nothing has changed, except that I do not light up anymore. I am wondering if this is common (I’ve never heard of this as a side effect), and how quickly it may go away. It is beginning to be a bit embarrassing!
