Chantix Injury Claim (varenicline)
Chantix Defect Lawyer
Smokers admittedly struggle when making an effort to kick the habit. To help, Pfizer designed and manufactured a drug called Chantix (varenicline) to assist in the fight to stop smoking. Pfizer claims that Chantix is effective 44% of the time in helping users stop smoking within 12 weeks of treatment. However, there are extremely dangerous psychological side effects associated with Chantix use, leading up to and including chronic anxiety and depression. In some cases, users have committed suicide and/or committed acts of extreme violence.
Chantix users may have a Chantix injury claim if they have experienced any of the following symptoms:
- Depression
- Suicidal thoughts
- Hostility
- Agitation
- Extreme behavior changes
- Mood swings
- Seizure
- Heart problems
- Vision problems
Extreme cases of abnormal thoughts up to and including attempted suicide or suicidal ideation have been reported by Chantix users and their families. Contact a Chantix defect lawyer immediately if you or a loved one is experiencing these dangerous side effects.

Even Chantix users with psychiatric history may have a claim against Pfizer for injuries sustained while on this drug. On February 1, 2008, Pfizer issued an increased warning to consumers that changes in behavior, including suicidal thoughts, may occur while on Chantix. Several users and their families have filed Chantix injury claims in states throughout the country. Chantix injury lawyers have recently petitioned for the creation of multi-district litigation to consolidate discovery of these claims.
