I bought Chantix in June to try to stop smoking. I put it in the cabinet until I decided on a start day. I started hearing about bad side effects. The news reports started saying the FDA was requiring Chantix to update warnings on additional side effects.

I email Pfizer asking for a refund since so many of the side effects are ones I already have with MS and am treating them with meds. The one rare effect listed is it can cause MS. I can't imagine that it would be very safe for those of us who already have MS.

They sent an email back with an 800# to call. The rep. I spoke with said all I needed to do was to send the pharmacy receipt and a letter requesting a refund. She said dispose of the Chantix and don't send it back. I told her I purchased it in June but she said that was no problem. They would send my refund in 4 to 6 weeks.

I just thought I pass this info along to anyone who has paid for Chantix and can't take it or had bad side effects and wants a refund.
