You can also check out a good health food store and find natural supplements that can help with the cravings. Not a GNC or Vitamin World you will have to search. </p>

here is one online I have bought Oregano Oil and Body Alkalizer products from them. Plus they are in Cleveland. You can always call and ask what they recommend</p>

The issue is is when I drink, it's like a ritual, have a drink, go and smoke.  That seems to be the major issue.  Usually, when I drink I might have 6, but Tuesday I had 3 and knocked me on my ass.  The patch seems to be lowering my tolerance.  Definately a good thing.</p>

<p>
March 5, 2009 </p>

<p>
Varenicline is already sold as a stop-smoking drug under the name Chantix, but now researchers say the drug also may help heavy drinkers cut down on their alcohol consumption,  Medical News Today reported March 3.</p>

<p>
Yale School of Medicine researchers found that heavy-drinking smokers given varenicline were less likely to drink than those given a placebo, and also reported feeling fewer cravings for alcohol and less of a feeling of intoxication when they did drink. They also were more likely to decline when offered a drink than those in the placebo group.</p>

<p>
The study found that 80 percent of the varenicline group did not drink at all during the research period, compared to 30 percent of the placebo group.</p>

<p>
Researchers noted that combining varenicline with alcohol did not produce any major side-effects, which could make it a safer alternative to naltrexone, which is metabolized by the liver.</p>

<p>
"We anticipate that the results of this preliminary study will trigger clinical trials of varenicline as a primary treatment for alcohol use disorders, and as a potential dual treatment for alcohol and tobacco use disorders," said researcher Sherry McKee.</p>

<p>
The study was published online in the journal Biological Psychiatry.</p>

I have quit smoking several times!  Once for 7 years when I was still in the Navy.  Started again because of stress.  Quit finally when my father died of lung cancer.  Been almost 7 years now.  Hardest part is the first few weeks.  I quit cold turkey.  Just stopped.  Good luck.  I also work out daily, doing over 1 hour of rowing per day, with pushups, and wt training.  It seems to help working out.  Gets rid of stress and "poison" from the system.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/57426</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/57426</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[DieHardBrownsFan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 01 Apr 2009 22:06:47 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Quitting Smoking on Wed, 01 Apr 2009 21:43:40 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/kosar_for_president" aria-label="Profile: kosar_for_president">@<bdi>kosar_for_president</bdi></a> <a href="/post/57364">said</a>:</p>Well this is day 3 and the patch is working wonders.
