Following are some considerations for people taking Zyban:
- When taking Zyban twice daily, make sure that you take the doses at least eight hours apart.
- You can take Zyban with or without food. If the medication bothers your stomach, try taking it with food.
- Be sure to swallow the tablets whole. They should not be cut, broken, chewed, or crushed.
- Zyban should be taken at the same time(s) each day to maintain even levels of the drug in your blood.
- Talk with your healthcare provider prior to treatment if you have liver or kidney problems, as you may need a lower Zyban dosage.
- For Zyban to work properly, you have to take it as prescribed. The medication will not work if you take it in a way other than how your healthcare provider has recommended.
- If you are unsure about anything related to Zyban or your Zyban dosage, talk with your doctor, nurse, or pharmacist. Do not stop taking the drug without first discussing it with your healthcare provider.
