Q. Has anyone else wet the bed while taking Chantix? I had a very vivid dream that I had gotten out of bed, gone into the bathroom, sat down and urinated. Then I woke up and discovered that I had wet the bed.
I knew to expect nausea and weird dreams when I started taking the drug a month ago. Starting the second week, my anxiety and mood swings have gotten bad. The bed-wetting was the last straw. I stopped taking Chantix entirely. I’m not happy about that, because I really want to quit smoking.
A. We could find no scientific reports of bedwetting linked to Chantix. This stop-smoking drug does cause vivid dreams and nightmares, which may contribute to this problem. Anyone who has experienced such a side effect can report it to www.peoplespharmacy.com or to the FDA at www.fda.gov/medwatch/.
