A member asked:

Good day, i have been smoking for 6 odd years. i wish to stop but have problems doing so on my own. is there a recommended drug i can use to assist me?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nicotine replacement: Nicotine replacement using nicotine transdermal patches, chewing gum, lozenges, or nasal spay is effective. The oral medications bupropion and Chantix (generic name: varenicline) are also effective treatments but require prescriptions. Some people use vaping as a means of quitting smoking tobacco but the safety and effectiveness of vaping for smoking cessation is not proven.
