Choosing some extra back-up
|
Many smokers quit succesfully by using 'stop smoking' medicines to help them cope with cravings. Your Stop Smoking Adviser will help you choose the right type to suit your lifestyle and smoking habits; from nicotine patches and gum, to mouth sprays and tablets.
Lots of medicines contain controlled doses of nicotine but because they don't have the tar, poisons and carbon monoxide that make cigarettes cause cancer, they are less addictive and harmful than smoking.
