A Natural Way to Quit Smoking?

Quitting smoking, with a natural product? This product finally made its way to Canada. Here’s what you need to know about it!
I review the product, Cravv, in terms of efficacy, safety, cost, and convenience. Stay tuned for the Pharma-CR Podcast where I'll be talking about Cravv in more detail: / user-890679010

I have looked up stuff like this for years and this first time I seen this video, and it been up for 3 years.

I am using it and I have no cravings helps very good and no side effects so far

[@ashleybishton742]

Same here. I'm on day 4 and the cravings are there a little bit but quit on day 2. I found the first couple of days you got to make that choice do I smoke or don't I. Then you just say no and the cravings go really quickly. I don't know much about them as onlh just started the course but so far so good I'm very very very impressed with the results I'm seeing and feeling. I feel much healthy and much better now. Only way is up.

Cytisine is very cheep and effective treatment if you want to quit smoking. In Poland it costs about 18 USD (70 PLN) for whole treatment (Tabex/Desmoxan - 100 tabs.), It's OTC drug, so you can start you treatment any time you want

[@heypharmacist]

Awesome! Good to know :)

[@sheen8927]

Can you please .. please tell me how i get it ..I'm in egypt and it's not available in all the middle east actually.. please help me I'm so disparate to get it since champix is no longer available too 😢

[@umityildirim5558]

iam using it under brand tabex it realy take your craving away and can quit easly with this substance

[@cjbgeneraux5358]

The studies of Cytisine vs Varenicline, whose outcomes are very easy to track by the documentation of a scientific review, are a painfully obvious candidate to at least test out. Unless the resultant data conflicted with the particular clip you had to speak on (for reasons I’m sure), then this speculation could resolve.

Hello. Do you know if people on antidepressants can take cravv? Thanks

[@heypharmacist]

Good question! I tried to get an answer for you but there are no studies that look at this relationship specifically. The manufacturer was also unable to provide information other than to use professional judgement, taking into account the mechanism of action and ADME of both medications, and doing a risk/benefit analysis. If any new information becomes available I will let you know!

[@catiagomes7900]

Hey Pharmacist, thanks for answering my questions. I appreciate your help and if you get to know anything else please let me know. Thanks

[@davidbirmingham6975]

Can't buy it from the United States

[@juarezderrick9647]

Because the government won't make money if we all stop smoking!

[@muhammadimrankhanniazi2009]

Good one but Champix is easily available and comes with easier dosing regime and i have seen patients quit smoking while using the Vareniciline

[@heypharmacist]

Thanks Imran. I agree with your comments: Champix has an easier dosing regimen and many patients have been able to quit smoking successfully while on treatment. As for accessibility, Cravv can be accessed without a prescription and even ordered online. Compared to Champix, the patient would either have to obtain a prescription from their doctor or from their pharmacist depending on the pharmacist's scope of practice. So yes, they are both easily available, however I believe Cravv is more readily accessible due to the nature of it being an NHP. The advantages with Champix that you mentioned must also be taken into consideration when speaking to patients. Let me know what you think.
