Stop-smoking program using nicotine reduction therapy and behavior modification for heavy smokers



TM Cooper and RR Clayton
Department of Oral Health Sciences, College of Dentistry, University of Kentucky, Lexington.

One hundred eighteen volunteers were studied in a hospital-based smoking cessation program in which nicotine polacrilex (Nicorette) was used as an adjunct to behavioral modification (group support). The "success" rate of 40% to 47% at 1 year was chemically verified. The regimen for using the nicotine polacrilex was "within labeling" but decidedly different from the regimen used in most smoking cessation programs involving this product.
