Abstract
SUMMARYThe most effective intervention for stopping smoking is a combination of professional counselling and pharmacotherapy. Medicines are recommended for all smokers who are motivated to quit and are nicotine dependent.Combination nicotine replacement therapy with a patch and an oral product is more effective than the patch alone. An adequate dose of nicotine must be used for an adequate duration.Varenicline is the most effective oral drug. It is safe in people with stable mental illness.Vaping nicotine is a second-line treatment which can be considered for smokers who are unable to quit with other methods.
