Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

Depression, insomnia, suicidal ideation etc are among black box warning symptoms with champix. In that you should consult your physician. Better to stop it if you are not getting any relief from these side effects at low dose. You can consult with physician for another substitution like bupropion or NRT.

Thanks
