Don't know anything about it, but if it works as good as wellbutrin did, I'd say go for it!!!

Anything that helps you keep your quit is worth trying!!

My husband was talking about this day. He has had a struggle with his quit and is still smoking, cut way down, but still smoking. Maybe this might be the thing for him. He cannot take Wellbutrin as it reacts with all his other meds and makes him break out in hives.
