Smoking Cessation Treatments.

Smoking Cessation is never easy - nicotine is the most addictive substance known to man. Most people are unable to succeed on will power alone. However with modern smoking cessation products and medications, quitting has become very much a possibility.

For Treatments to Stop Smoking & Prices

There are several smoking cessation products available in the UK. Here is a list of some possible treatments that can help you to quit smoking forever.

Medical

Champix: The prescription-only pill also provides relief from cravings and withdrawal symptoms, and doubles the odds of quitting compared with the only other oral medication available. Champix works on the pleasure centre of the brain to cut the satisfaction smokers get from a cigarette. This means that if people have a lapse and smoke a cigarette, they will find it less enjoyable and are more likely to continue to quit.

Zyban: Zyban was first made to treat depression, but was then found to be useful in helping quitting smoking, regardless of whether or not the person trying to quit is depressed. The tablets are usually taken before stopping smoking, with a stop smoking date set in the first fortnight of taking them.

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT)

Nicotine gum, sprays, patches, tablets, lozenges, and inhalers are available. Using one of these roughly doubles your chance of stopping smoking if you really want to stop. A pharmacist, GP, practice nurse or Stop Smoking Clinic can advise about NRT.

Non Medicinal Treatments

Hypnosis: Smoking cessation is one of the most popular medical uses of hypnosis. Hypnosis helps a person learn to deeply relax, be open to suggestions that strengthen resolve to quit, and increase negative feelings toward cigarettes.

Acupuncture: Acupuncture is believed to help trigger the release of endorphins (naturally-occurring pain relief substances) that allow the body to relax. By helping the body become more balanced, acupuncture can be helpful in managing physiological withdrawal symptoms.

Behavioral Therapy: Because so much of nicotine addiction is related to the habitual behaviors (the “rituals”) involved in smoking, learning to change the automatic nature of those behaviors is often a standard approach to a smoking cessation program. Working with a therapist or counselor, you can learn new ways to cope with the underlying reasons why you've smoked in the past and break through habitual patterns.
