FDA Warnings and Resources
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regularly reviews and re-reviews prescription drugs when new information becomes available. As new studies yield and report results, the FDA may change its warnings accordingly. Chantix is one of many drugs that has been under the scrutiny of the FDA for its potentially negative side effects. Knowing how to use FDA resources to look up information and warnings can help you stay informed about medications that you are taking or have taken in the past.
Chantix has received some criticism because of its potential to cause severe behavioral changes in patients. In response to a number of reports about the negative effects of Chantix, the FDA issued a black box warning that must be included on the label for the drug. A black box warning is the highest level of warning that the FDA provides. It is usually reserved for medications that have adverse or potentially life-threatening side effects.
If you are considering taking Chantix or have taken Chantix in the past, you may want to investigate the FDA MedWatch page. MedWatch is a collection of news releases and warnings for products that are currently on the market. By typing “Chantix” into the search bar, you can look up any and all warnings and notifications that the FDA has released regarding the drug.
