There are people who quit smoking on their own. But the use of Quit smoking pill  helps smokers to increase their chances to stop using cigarettes. After considering their current medication if any, these pills can be used after taking the doctor's opinion. It is not very safe to take the pills in combination with certain medication; hence it's very important to seek the doctor's opinion.

The brain transmitters are of two types, the chemical messengers that create the sense of pleasure –dopamine, and sense of stimulation- norepinephrine. These are the chemicals which are stimulated every time one smokes a cigarette. When one quits smoking, the level of these chemicals drop making a person miserable and want more cigarettes. Bupropion is an oral tablet which when taken keeps the level of these chemicals constant making it easy to deal with the withdrawal symptoms. To get used to its effect it is started two weeks before quitting. The first side effect of Bupropion is dry mouth. Some people also get jitteriness. Difficulty in sleeping is another side effect seen in some people. In some people it may cause stomach upset and headaches.

Varenicline is another common pill used by smokers to quit smoking. But this pill also needs medical assistance. The side effects of Varenicline are nausea, difficulty in swallowing and soreness in throat. This pill may also cause difficulty in sleeping. These pills are also known to cause depression in some patients.

Quitting smoking without help is possible but medication just makes things a little easier.

So wait a second, you'd like me to quit smoking cigarettes (which I don't) by taking uppers?

Multiple administrations of high doses of methamphetamine to rats cause long-term depression of both dopamine and serotonin synthesis. Coadministration of the catecholamine synthesis inhibitor, alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine, antagonizes this effect of methamphetamine on both neurotransmitter systems. However, when catecholamine synthesis was maintained by the administration of L-dopa and the peripheral decarboxylase inhibitor R04-4602, alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine no longer prevented the effects of methamphetamine on either dopamine or serotonin synthesis. In addition, the administration of the specific dopamine uptake blocker, amfonelic acid, significantly attenuated the changes in the serotonin synthesizing enzyme, tryptophan hydroxylase, resulting from multiple high doses of methamphetamine.

The ability of a single administration of methamphetamine to depress tryptophan hydroxylase was also dependent on catecholamine synthesis. These results suggest that dopamine plays an important role in the changes mediated by the administration of methamphetamine in both the dopaminergic and serotonergic systems.

Long story short. If you want to quit smoking, take up methamphetamines, just like layton says.

Interesting first post, although the science of the drugs seems accurate at first glance.  The Bupropion will also help you with your depression.
