I think its an interesting read also. Makes you wonder why someones death for using a product would be considered an expected result though. At least you can see after I tried many ways to quit smoking, I have a legitimate reason to be a little crazy.
Here are a few of the previously unreported reactions cited in this article:
A 24-year-old woman who started beating her boyfriend in bed because "he looked so peaceful" and later attempted suicide;
A 42-year-old man who punched a stranger at a bowling alley;
A 47-year-old woman who died after she came out of a room, yelled at her daughters and then shot herself.
Sounds like me when I tried to quit cold turkey......

Great information, I'm going to send this to my sister who has the prescription for this drug!
Sounds to me like the doctor that prescribed that medication didn't do their job or the patient lied to the doctor. I’ve tried chantix 2 times in the past and it worked both times, started smoking again because 4-5 months down the road I would be drinking and say screw it and have a cigarette.
Here on base they have a really strict prescreening if they are going to prescribe chantix, if you have had any kind of depression or metal issues at all they don’t prescribe it as the main side effect that’s clearly printed says that it will magnify it 10 fold. These people in this article most likely already had some deep mental issues to start with; the drug just tipped them over the top.
this is the reason people need to carefully read the side effects on drugs before they put it in their body, can't knock chantix, personally I think it’s the best drug out there to help quit smoking, in my opinion and personal experience at least.

I know 2 persons had quit smoking with Chantix a few years ago. Both are under "medical observation" since than and taking some pills for "peace of mind". But don't smoke for sure (I tried to "seduced" them with cigarettes). One of them wanted to contact a law firm that advertise on TV about "Chantix" side effects.
