Nicotine replacement therapy is a medically approved way to help patients quit by taking in nicotine by means other than smoking tobacco.

➡️ Types
- Nicorette gum
- Nicotrol inhaler
- Nicotine transdermal patches
- Nicotine nasal spray
- Prescription medications

Each type of nicotine replacement therapy has its own benefits and risks when it comes to helping patients quit smoking. The goal is to titrate the amount of nicotine that is ingested over time in order to curb the body's craving to smoke or use other types of tobacco.

➡️ Medications
There are also various prescription medications that can be used to help people quit smoking, including:
- Bupropion (Zyban)
- Varenicline (Chantix)

Both medications have been shown to be effective in smoking cessation by reducing the patient’s cravings and withdrawal symptoms.
