Nicotine Replacement Therapies (NRT)

The remaining 4 medications fall under Nicotine Replacement Therapies (NRT)

Nicotine Patch

You can obtain these patches from either by prescription or over-the-counter. When you place the patch on your skin, it will release a consistent amount of nicotine into your blood stream. Usually, the patch will have a time-release period between 16 and 24 hours. By supplying nicotine to your body, it can help you to overcome your cravings for cigarette.

CHANTIX

This prescribed drug came into market last year. It is the latest drug approved by the FDA so far. It contains an active ingredient known as varenicline tartrate. The medication works by blocking the nicotine receptors in your brain. This reduces the pleasure effects of nicotine. Therefore, when you stop smoking, the receptors in your brain cannot experience any stimulation as before when you were smoking. This will help you to crave lesser for cigarettes.

Have you ever tried to quit smoking for the first time? How hard is it? Most people can testify that the first time experience is not a pleasant one. Imagine the mental torture and the dying urge for cigarette after your last smoke.

What is stop smoking shot? It injects certain drugs into your hip and ears, which may overcome your craving for cigarette. It uses scopolamine and atropine. When these drugs are in your body, they trigger the production of endorphins, which puts you in euphoria. This replaces your craving for nicotine with endorphins. The operators of the smoking cessation clinics believe that one shot can make you quit smoking for a long time. But could it be a scam?

I read a headline today “Liquid Nicotine Cigarette Being Studied In Milwaukee.”

The study will validate the effectiveness of liquid nicotine cigarette in combating the desire to smoke. This new smoking cessation gadget (known as Smoke-Break) supposedly allows smokers to receive lower dosages of nicotine as compared to cigarettes. At the same time, it mimics the act of habitual smoking.
