Tyler, TXA Texas man claims that Chantix side effects caused him to set a number of churches on fire, according to KYTX, a local CBS affiliate.
Jason Bourque, who is currently serving time in Smith County Jail, recently told the news source from prison that he was in a "daze" when he started a majority of the church fires. He added that the mixing of the anti-smoking drug Chantix with Prozac, a depression drug, put him in a dream-like state.
"At first I wasn't sure whether any of it had really happened or if it had been a dream because I had had several dreams where similar things had happened," Bourque told the news source.
In Bourque's psychiatric evaluation, which was reportedly obtained by the news source, Dr. Gary Meyers said that Chantix has been given a high safety warning by the US Food and Drug Administration, due to potential adverse side effects.
According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information, Chantix use can potentially lead to behavioral changes and suicidal thoughts.
