Smoking tobacco is one cause of certain preventable illnesses and diseases, such as cancer and cardiovascular disease. Many people struggle to quit smoking, often due to the cravings and withdrawal symptoms that result from nicotine dependence. However, several effective interventions can help, which typically involve a combination of therapy and medication. Smoking cessation refers to any treatment designed to help people stop smoking.
Therapeutic support is typically a critical component of successful smoking cessation interventions. Medication prescribers can help clients make behavior changes, learn coping strategies, and develop relapse prevention plans. Therapy also often focuses on psycho-education about substance dependence and behavior change. Medication prescribers may also bring expertise in motivational interviewing to help clients build commitment and momentum for smoking cessation, while also addressing any underlying factors that lead to smoking.
