CigRX launch

This sounds like it could be an good compliment to vaping? Just ordered a single sample pack for $4 bucks.

 

That is precisely right. In my experience thus far, CigRx -- when used with vaping -- provides some of what is missing from vaping alone.

To me, the difference was more subtle than I'd hoped, but the effect is beneficial.

Now, if we could just get tceight, kinabaloo and/or Dvap to tell us the best way to make the CigRx tablets vapable and add them into our regular eLiquid, then things might start getting really interesting.

Frankly, I am surprised that one of them hasn't already done this and reported the results.

 

I thought this was interesting for anyone looking to avoid employer testing for tobacco use.

"Anabasine and Anatabine as Biomarkers for Tobacco Use during Nicotine Replacement Therapy1"

Anabasine and Anatabine as Biomarkers for Tobacco Use during Nicotine Replacement Therapy — Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention

 

A useful piece of information about which I had been wondering is revealed in this study:

"The half-lives of anabasine and anatabine, based on urinary excretion data, were found to be 16 h and 10 h, respectively"

So, whereas the CigRx website only has data showing anatabine levels over the course of the first hour or so after taking a tablet, this study appears to suggest that the half-life of the anatabine in CigRx is ~ 10 hours. By itself, this is potentially actionable information for self-titration.

This also gives us a benchmark against which to measure our subjective experience when taking CigRx in tablet form, and -- hopefully, in short order -- when using the CigRx converted to vapable form (i.e., when we are able to vape a combination of nicotine, anabatine and yerba mate).

 

Are there any updates from people using these?
Still using them? Not worth it? Best thing since sliced bread?
Thanks

 

Feedback has been mixed. Some have claimed significantly benefit. Others, not so much.

One sample pack is free (I think there is a $4 shipping fee), so why rely on another person's opinion instead of just trying it yourself?

 

(that was a bit snarky )

The trial isn't listed on their site anymore, but I've emailed them about them. On their site, they want to lock consumers into those horrible auto-ship schemes- and their least expensive ($40), is quite a bit of money for me right now. I'm fighting with my insurance over thousands of dollars in apparently necessary monthly prescriptions & procedures for heart & kidney failure.

I wouldn't rely on one persons opinion. If we had 10, or 20 people concluding exactly the same thing after the 5 months since the thread was active (particularly without few detractors) that would be useful.

 

I definitely did not mean for my comment to be snarky or rude, and I apologize if it came across that way, deusXmchna.

I'm also sorry to hear about your health challenges and your battle with insurance to cover medically-necessary medications.

I don't know anything about CigRx's current promotions, but you can call them and ask about the getting a free or inexpensive sample package. I believe several people have commented that they were pressured to sign up for large orders, recurring orders, etc. Evidently, the key was to keep repeating that the only way you are going to try their products -- and potentially become a longer-term customer -- is if you are given a sample pack.

If that doesn't work, there may be someone on this forum that buys CigRx regularly, and could send you single container to try.

 

I've been using Arriva's for... well, since they made the java flavored. I was gifted a bunch by a tobacconist who wasn't having luck selling them. I plan on ordering Stonewalls when they run out.

Still waiting for an email back from them, will call on Monday if no reply.

Yeah, I apologized to Tescela in PM earlier today. Very embarassing behavior on my part. Frustrations made me start seeing enemies where there were none. Apologies to all who read it.
I know I can erase/edit- but I prefer to leave my "bad behavior" posts up, as a permanent reminder to myself of the power and permanency of words. Even if I erased it- I can't erase it from the memories who read it, or Tescela's, who I struck at.
Again, apologies to all, and thank for your offer and consistent "soft touch", Katya. (The owl avatar suits your personality.) 'nuf said!

 

My sample is still sitting on the shelf. With snus and Stonewalls at hand, ti just didn't compare. I keep thinking I'll try them again when I'm really stuck somewhere.... but then again, there is snus, and Stonewalls!

Anybody heard anything from Tropical Bob???!
Nevermind, I just scrolled up and checked his posts.

 

I just found a TropicalBob review of CigRX on youtube (he just put it up about 2 weeks ago): YouTube - cigrx

 

Thanks for posting that telsie. I think I'll try it as I have both products. I miss TB's postings, he is such a wealth of information!

 

Hi katya, Thank You!
I would like to try CigRX with Ariva or Stonewall. I can pick up a pack of Ariva at Rite-Aid. Sample CigRX offer still open?

 

Thanks, Katya. I just ordered 10 free CigRX samples. $3.95 shipping. And cancelled the trial order as you have instructed. Yes, selected Rite-Aids do carry Ariva and also Stonewall. For the complete list you can contact sales department at 1-866-462-7482 Ariva Smoke Free tobacco- The Future of Tobacco I was a straight analoger for more than 25 years. pac a day one. I've been vaping 18 mos on and off. I did not vaped and smoked a cigar same time. I mean... It was more like vaping for 30 days followed by intense analoging for 30 days. (someone explain this for me) Occasionally, when I vaped halo bella 24mg right after a cig it reminded me more how much I like piping. I am a golf fanatic. Every golfer wants the same thing - how can I hit it further. Tension in your golf swing reduces your club head speed. Recently, I am noticing less distance and higher putting averages. I have not had any analogs since Jan.

 

I'm enjoying TB's video. Interesting that they are testing these to treat Alzheimers. Anyhow, I went to order some to have delivered to my cousin and her huband who have been having a terrible time trying to stop smoking. Her husband has bad COPD. They are selling 20 10-packs (200 pieces) for 39.99. As I was checking out, I noticed that there was a space for a coupon code. I did a quick search for a code and tried out the first one I found: "todays 10". Wow! It took 50% off the sales price and removed the shipping charge. So my cousin is getting this order that is only costing me a a total of $19.99.
