زي ماحنا عارفين ان Champix (varenicline) الي يستخدم في الاقلاع عن التدخين انسحب و رجع مرة ثانية وبعدين لاقينا tyrvaya الي تحتوي على نفس المادة varenicline لكن بشكل صيدلاني مختلف (بخاخ أنف).
السؤال يقول ايش استخدامه والماكنيزم حقه 🌝

Varenicline (Chantix) is a first-line therapy option for smoking cessation 🚭.

It has been shown to be more effective in helping smokers quit than bupropion or nicotine replacement therapy alone.

Varenicline (Champix) is one of the most effective smoking cessation treatments, but has been unavailable in England since mid-2021. Unsurprisingly, use in quit attempts rapidly fell to virtually zero.

We estimated the impact of this on quit rates.

small RCT: For individuals who smoked but did not achieve abstinence after varenicline, ↑ the dosage enhanced abstinence vs continuing, whereas for nonabstainers treated with Continued NRT, a dosage ↑ or switch to varenicline enhanced abstinence jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…

Electronic cigarettes offer a harm reduction approach for #adultADHD patients trying to quit tobacco after failing with NRT, Bupropion, Varenicline. Unfortunately, they are only available in the black market in India thanks to a ban back in 2019. Possession is being criminalised.

بخاخ أنفي يستخدم لجفاف العيون اسمه التجاري (TYRVAYA) وقلت ماشي بس انه يكون نفس المادة الفعالة في عقار (Varenicline) المستخدم للاقلاع عن التدخين هذي اسمها احلام العصر 😂😂💊 وكل عام وانتم بخير . 🎉

Varenicline (Chantix) has a large effect in smoking cessation, but new study suggests that's partly because people could guess if they got varenicline/placebo

Results also suggests people guessed right b/c med worked so well, reducing reward of #smoking

New trial raised #smoking quit rates 2-4 fold with 'adaptive' strategy. Patients started with varenicline or nicotine patch. If no response in 2 wks, they added bupropion or placebo:

I'd like to see more 'adaptive' trials like this in #psychiatry

Quelles actions possibles pour arrêter?
-entretiens motivationnels
-psychothérapies de soutien
-substituts nicotiniques (pouvant etre utilisés même avec le tabac)
-vapote, très nettement - nocif /tabac
-médicaments: varénicline, bupropion

Nancy Rigotti presents #SRNT2023 a three arm trial of #cytisine showing large effects on #smoking cessation for both a 6 and 12 week course. We need more cessation treatments since Varenicline became unavailable in most countries.

A medicine that is relatively newer and appears to be quite effective is Varenicline for smoking cessation.
I have seen so many patients who could finally quit smoking with this drug's help.
If you are someone who is struggling with smoking and is motivated to quit, this…

So just got back from the Doctor. My doctor’s advice is to go on Varenicline (Champix). I was a bit hesitant, but he assured me that he thinks this is the best path for me to cease smoking.

He doesn’t want me to go cold turkey but to cut down and take the medication. I can stop…
