Abstract |
Clinical trials show that NRT doubles the chance of success for those who try to stop smoking. NRT reduces withdrawal symptoms like irritability, depression and craving. Very few people become addicted to NRT. Some ex-smokers continue to use it for a year or more but this is mainly to prevent a return to smoking. For the best results, NRT should be used in sufficient quantities and for long enough. Smokers should follow the instructions in the package and seek advice from their nurse, pharmacist or GP if they need more information. |
