What Is Varenicline Starter Pack?

The varenicline starter pack is the first-month supply of varenicline (Chantix), a prescription tablet approved by the FDA to help adults quit smoking. The starter pack includes both 0.5 mg and 1 mg tablets, allowing the dose to be increased gradually during the first week to reduce side effects like nausea. Varenicline works by partially stimulating nicotine receptors in the brain, which eases cravings and withdrawal while also blunting the rewarding effects of smoking if you do smoke. It is typically used together with counseling or a quit-support program for the best results.
