Ask An Expert: Smoking Cessation

1. Interactions Between Chantix and Antidepressants
I started taking Chantix seven days ago. Can this interfere with Effexor? The reason I ask is that I have noticed a subtle decline in mood.
2. Weight Gain and Chantix
I started taking Chantix two months ago. I'm worried about gaining weight. Is that one of the side effects?
3. Nicotine Detection in Blood
Can nicotine be detected in the blood? For how long?
4. Cough After Quitting Smoking
I recently stopped smoking — a month ago to be exact — and now I find that I'm coughing a lot. Is this normal?
5. Mixing Chantix, Zoloft and Wellbutrin
I'm about to take Chantix to stop smoking. I also am on Zoloft (50 mg) and Wellbutrin (300 mg) daily. Is there a chance of a serious reaction with these medications?
