Quit Smoking Treatment

Quit Smoking Treatment, also known as Smoking Cessation Therapy, is a structured program to help individuals stop smoking tobacco. It includes a combination of behavioral counseling, medications, and support strategies tailored to the patient’s readiness and level of nicotine dependence. Quitting smoking significantly reduces the risk of lung diseases, heart disease, cancer, and early death.

  • Improves lung function and immunity
  • Reduces chances of stroke and vascular disease
  • Enhances overall life expectancy and quality of life
  • Benefits even in long-term smokers, regardless of age

  • Craving for tobacco
  • Sleep disturbances
  • Increased appetite or weight gain
