NRT for Quitting Smoking
When starting on your journey to quit smoking, it is imperative that you talk openly with your healthcare professional about your personal and family history, any underlying medical conditions, previous attempts to stop and other lifestyle habits that may relate to your treatment.
When tested in a controlled environment using nicotine replacement therapy and a placebo, results established the efficacy and safety of NRT.
Studies recorded that the treatment increased quit rates by 60% compared to patients who received the placebo.
What’s the most effective quit smoking treatment for me?
Many outside factors must be considered when determining the most effective means of treatment for smoking, or any other type of substance addiction.
Nicotine replacement therapy should only be used as directed by your healthcare professional, with regular monitoring to ensure you receive the correct therapeutic dose needed to quit smoking.
Results with Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT)
Recent studies point towards a combination of NRT and behavioural techniques as the most effective means of abstaining from addictive substances, such as cigarettes or alcohol. As NRT helps to alleviate the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal, behaviour modification works to identify and change the daily habits that may act as triggers causing someone to smoke.

Frequently asked questions
In most cases, nicotine replacement therapy is the most effective treatment for quitting smoking. Although the body still receives nicotine through a different dispersal method, it is a controlled, low-dose release that is only used for a short period to assist in the symptoms associated with nicotine withdrawal.
If you feel the urge to smoke within 30 minutes of waking in the morning or smoke more than ten cigarettes daily, you will likely develop nicotine dependence. For patients that align with this category, NRT is recommended to quit smoking.
