Consider Medicines with your Physician to Quit Tobacco

Pharmacological Interventions and Nicotine Replacement Therapies (NRTs): Some common medications include nicotine replacement therapies (NRTs), such as nicotine patches, gums, lozenges, and inhalers, which provide controlled doses of nicotine to help wean off the habit gradually. Other medications, like bupropion and varenicline, work by reducing withdrawal symptoms and blocking nicotine receptors in the brain, making smoking less satisfying. Combining these medications with behavioral support and counseling can significantly increase the chances of successfully quitting smoking. Learn more about the options here!
