Nicotine replacements address the heart of your cigarette addiction — nicotine — while immediately removing your exposure to the thousands of other chemicals and toxins in cigarettes. So compared with trying to cut down on your own, replacements are a much safer option.
HOW TO QUIT SMOKING
No two smokers are the same. And no two paths to quitting will be, either.
With so many possible ways to quit smoking, how do you know what’s right for you? This section helps you understand how to quit smoking with nicotine replacements and which product is right for you.
Why Nicotine Replacements?
As you’ve seen, smoking has both mental and physical aspects. If you’re going to quit smoking, support will have to come in both mental and physical forms. Nicotine replacements can provide support for the physical side of your addiction. That’s why nicotine replacements have a better success rate than going cold turkey.
Finally, nicotine replacements have been shown to be effective in clinical trials and have been approved for smoking cessation by the FDA. They have more than 20 years of research behind them. So, unlike some less-tested methods for how to quit smoking, nicotine replacements are a method you can feel confident about using.
