How to control smoking?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Excellent question as smoking clearly over time can be very risky. Since nicotine is extremely addicting, doctors often use medication programs to ease the withdrawal. Your primary doctor should readily be able to help you. Be proactive and start today. Best luck.

You don't want to control smoking, you should stop smoking. Nicotine replacement therapy is a start. Try nicotine gum, patch, lozenges, spray ,and inhaler and medications, ZYBAN and CHANTIX. Long term smoking leads to lung cancer and oral cancers. Your betel nut chewing can also lead to oral cancer.
