A member asked:
What can my mother take to quit smoking?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Smoking is a com-: plex habit, one that has a physically addicting side, and also a strong behavioral component. Mom will have to deal with both. If Mom cleans out physically but fails to disentangle herself from all the behavioral associations to smoking, she will relapse.
