Chantix?

Before I was allowed to have surgery I had to stop smoking for 2months. I went to my pcp and pick up a sript for Chantix.

I took it for 2months no issue. I haven't took the pill since surgery Aug 26. The urge for smoking came back and I decided I would take it again.

I got sick the frist time. Tried it again sick again. Does anyone else have this issue?

Should I crush them or what. At this time I scared as hack to take them.

I quit using Chartix, but everyone told me I acted like I was in a fog, and finally quit tobacco with vaping.
