Zyban, prescribed to help someone who is addicted to tobacco quit smoking, is not an improper use of this drug. It's a very effective use for it. I smoked for 35 years and was admittedly addicted to tobacco. I took Zyban for two months when I first decided to quit and it was of great help in reducing my physiological and psychological cravings for tobacco. That was two years ago and I haven't smoked or wanted a cigarette in that time. Not once was I induced by this drug to commit an act of violence or otherwised coerced into irrational behavior. There is no proven corollary between Zyban use and violence. As in many other cases, Zyban is being blamed to relieve some people of responsibility for acts they committed of their own volition. It's a scam.
