Nicotine replacement therapy (NRT)
NRT involves therapeutic doses of nicotine, to reduce symptoms associated with withdrawal. Some types of NRT include lozenges, patches, inhalators and gum. [2]
Combination therapy
This type of therapy involves utilising both a long-lasting NRT treatment and a faster-acting dispersal method to achieve successful results.
Pharmacotherapy
Products administered for pharmacotherapy act on neurotransmitters to alleviate cravings and symptoms associated with nicotine withdrawal.

Causes of smoking
Understanding what causes you to smoke and identifying your reason for quitting is essential to breaking the habit.
While there is no one reason why people begin smoking, studies have shown that common contributing factors include peer pressure, strain on mental health, media influence, social surroundings and, in some cases, genetic predisposition. [1]
Symptoms of smoking-related health conditions
Inhalation of nicotine and tobacco has the potential to adversely affect other areas of your health and wellbeing. Smoking has been linked to both heart disease and cancer.
Symptoms such as shortness of breath, chest pain and poor circulation could be early warning signs of the symptoms associated with smoking-related conditions and diseases. [1]

Frequently asked questions
hub.health uses a secure digital health platform to provide discreet and convenient access to smoking treatments from an Australian based team of medical experts.
After completing the online questionnaire, a hub.health clinician will determine if you’re a candidate for nicotine replacement therapy (NRT). If you’re successful, we’ll organise fast delivery to your door. If your assigned practitioner identifies a potential risk in issuing NRT treatment, they’ll likely refer you to an in-person GP for further review.
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. [2]
Once your treatment has been paid for, it will be dispatched within 1-3 days and sent via express delivery. Your product is shipped in an Australia Post package, which means it will be completely discreet.
