Beware of the Stop Smoking Shot

Before you get a stop smoking shot, there are a few things to think about. Stop smoking injections are very expensive, and they have a potential to be very dangerous. Not to mention that the boasted success rate of 80% has never been proven. Don’t get a stop smoking shot until you have some hard facts.

First of all, I’d like to comment on the chemicals that the doctors inject into your body. The two ingredients used are called atropine and scopolamine.

According to Drugs.com, scopolamine and atropine can cause dizziness, drowsiness, blurred vision, confusion, agitation, rambling speech, hallucinations, paranoid behaviors, delusions, dilated pupils with pain and redness of the eyes, and difficulty urinating. If you get a stop smoking shot, you’ll be letting some guy inject these materials into your body. You’re also required to wear scopolamine patches, and take atropine pills, for two weeks after the injection. Does this sound healthy to you?

Another thing to consider before you decide to take a shot to Quit Smoking is the validity of the claims made by these Stop Smoking Injection clinics. There is no clinical proof that people who decide to get a stop smoking shot will really benefit from the injection, and they still want you to shell out $300-$500 for it. On Welplex’s site, they have a page of sources supposedly supporting the procedure. I’ve spent countless hours of research trying to find any information on these references, but came up with next to nothing.

Don’t get a stop smoking shot until you read this next little tidbit. Here is one of the references used on the Welplex website that supports the procedure: Bachynsky N. The use of anticholinergic drugs for smoking cessation: a pilot study. Int J Addict. 1986 Jul;21(7):789-805.

The doctor they are referring to is Nicholas Bachynsky. I found a report online by Stephen Barrett, M.D that warns people to stay away from this guy. According to Dr. Barrett’s report, Bachynsky is a twice convicted criminal who had his license revoked in the early 90’s. Bachynsky is also affiliated with other questionable practices. Are you going to get a stop smoking shot based on this guy’s word?

If you’re going to take a shot to quit smoking, do so at your own risk. The bottom line is that if the procedure really had an 80% success rate with minimal risk, it would be widely accepted by the media. There are also many “beware of scam” sites that warn against the stop smoking shot procedure.

The stop smoking injection has been around for some time now, but there is still no solid evidence that the procedure really works. Before you get a stop smoking shot, do yourself a favor and try something natural.
