[[Tobacco]] use is the leading cause of preventable disease, disability, and death in the United States. Each year, nearly half a million Americans die prematurely of smoking or exposure to secondhand smoke and 16 million live with a serious illness caused by [[smoking]]. [[Smoking]] can cause repairable damage to various organs including the [[heart]], [[lungs]], [[kidneys]], [[stomach]] and [[intestines]]. [[Smoking]] is associated with the causation of various cancers in the humans. Quitting [[smoking]] cuts [[cardiovascular]] risks, reduces risk for stroke to about half that of a nonsmoker’s, reduces risks for cancers of the [[mouth]], [[throat]], [[esophagus]], and [[bladder]] by half within 5 years and ten years after quitting [[smoking]], the risk for lung cancer drops by half. [[Smoking cessation]] can be achieved by some general, non-pharmacological and pharmacological strategies.
'''Smoking cessation''' is the effort to stop [[tobacco smoking|smoking]] [[tobacco]] products. [[Nicotine]] is an [[addiction|addictive]] substance, especially when taken in by inhaling tobacco smoke, probably because of the rapid absorption through the lungs. Tobacco use is one of the major causes of death worldwide, according to the [[World Health Organization]].<ref> [http://www.who.int/tobacco/en/index.html World Health Organization, Tobacco Free Initiative] </ref>.
 
==Description==
Research in western countries has found that approximately 3-5% of quit attempts succeed using willpower alone (Hughes et al, 2004) and clinical trials have shown that [[Nicotine replacement therapy|Nicotine Replacement Therapy]] (NRT) (see below) can double this rate to approximately 6-10% (Silagy et al, 2004). This is a small effect but is considered very worthwhile. Multi-session psychological support from a trained counselor, either individually or in groups has been shown in clinical trials to have an effect similar to that for NRT. The best chances of success can be obtained by combining medication and psychological support (see below) (USDHHS, 2000). Apart from NRT, medication that have been shown to be effective in clinical trials are: the tricyclic anti-depressant [[nortriptyline]], [[bupropion]] (Zyban,or Quomem in some countries) and the nicotinic partial agonist, [[varenicline]] (Chantix in the US and Champix elsewhere). Thorough reviews of the evidence for all these methods of stopping are available via the Cochrane Library website [http://www.theCochraneLibrary.com Cochrane Library]
 
There are many people and organizations touting what are claimed to be effective methods of helping smokers to stop. Any smoker thinking of paying money for such help would be well advised to ask whether the claims of success are backed up by indepedent comparative clinical trials, how the success rates have been calculated and what numbers of smokers have been included in the figures. It is very easy to make misleading claims of success rates which are not adequately supported by evidence.
 
A range of population level strategies such as [[tobacco advertising|advertising campaigns]], smoking restriction policies, and tobacco taxes have been used to promote smoking cessation. Of these, raising the cost of smoking is the one that has the strongest evidence (West, 2006).  
 
Smoking cessation will almost always lead to a longer and healthier life. Stopping in early adulthood can add up to 10 years of healthy life and stopping in one's 60s can still add 3 years of healthy life (Doll et al, 2004). Stopping smoking is also associated with better mental health and spending less of one's life with diseases of old age.


The most common short-term effects of stopping smoking are: increased irritability, depression, anxiety, restlessness, difficulty concentrating, increased appetite, constipation, mouth ulcers and increased susceptibility to upper respiratory tract infections. These mostly last for up to 4 weeks, though increased appetite typically lasts for more than 3 months. The most obvious long-term effect is weight gain (Hughes, 2007).

==Smoking cessation==
===General Principles===
The 5As are an evidence-based framework for structuring smoking cessation in health care settings. The 5As include: '''''Ask, Assess, Advise, Assist and Arrange follow-up'''''.

Smoking cessation services, which offer group or individual therapy can help people who want to quit. Some smoking cessation programs employ a combination of [[coaching]], [[motivational interviewing]],  [[cognitive behavioral therapy]], and pharmacological counseling.  
===Pharmacological===
First-line pharmacotherapy includes the multiple forms of nicotine replacement therapy (patch, nasal spray, losenge, gum, inhaler), sustained- release [[Bupropion extended release|bupropion]] hydrochloride, and [[varenicline]]. Second line therapy includes [[clonidine]] and [[nortriptyline]] and have been found to be efficacious.<ref name="urlwww.vapremier.com">{{cite web |url=https://www.vapremier.com/assets/SmokingCessationGuideline.pdf |title=www.vapremier.com |format= |work= |accessdate=}}</ref><br>

Trials have shown that an effective method for quitting smoking is [[cognitive behaviour therapy]] or CBT. For example, the QUIT FOR LIFE Programme ([[David Marks (psychologist)|David Marks]], 1993, 2005) has produced quit rates that are 5-6 times higher than quitting by willpower alone (Marks & Sykes, 2002).

While some smokers are successful with their first attempt, many people fail several times. Many smokers find it difficult to quit, even in the face of serious smoking-related disease in themselves or close family members or friends. A serious commitment to arresting dependency upon nicotine is essential.

Some studies have concluded that those who do successfully quit smoking can gain weight. "Weight gain is not likely to negate the health benefits of smoking cessation, but its cosmetic effects may interfere with attempts to quit." (Williamson, Madans et al, 1991) Therefore, drug companies researching smoking-cessation medication often measure the weight of the participants in the study.
 
Tobacco smoking has a [[laxative]] effect, smoking cessation may lead to [[constipation]], however this is by no means inevitable and is easily treated. <ref> {{cite web|url=http://www.helpwithsmoking.com/nicotine-withdrawal.php#constipation |title=Nicotine withdrawal symptoms:Constipation |accessdate=2007-06-29 |date=2005 |publisher=helpwithsmoking.com }}</ref>
 
[[Major depression]] may challenge smoking cessation success in women. Quitting smoking is especially difficult during certain phases of the [[reproductive cycle]], phases that have also been associated with greater levels of [[dysphoria]], and subgroups of women who have a high risk of continuing to smoke also have a high risk of developing depression. Since many women who are depressed  may be less likely to seek formal cessation treatment, practitioners have a unique opportunity to persuade their patients to quit.<ref> [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=8909649&dopt=Citation The impact of depression on smoking cessation in women.]</ref>
 
===Modalities===
[[Image:Nicoderm.JPG||thumb|right|A 21mg dose [[Nicoderm]] CQ patch applied to the left arm]]
 
Techniques which can increase smokers' chances of successfully quitting are:
*Quitting "[[cold turkey]]": abrupt cessation of all nicotine use as opposed to tapering or gradual stepped-down nicotine weaning. It is the quitting method used by 80<ref>Doran CM, Valenti L, Robinson M, Britt H, Mattick RP. Smoking status of Australian general practice patients and their attempts to quit. Addict Behav. 2006 May;31(5):758-66. PMID 16137834</ref> to 90%<ref>{{cite web| title=Cancer Facts & Figures 2003 | author=American Cancer Society | url=http://www.cancer.org/downloads/STT/CAFF2003PWSecured.pdf}}</ref> of all long-term successful quitters.
*Smoking-cessation support and counselling is often offered over the internet, over the phone [[quitline]]s (e.g. 1-800-QUIT-NOW), or in person.
*[[Nicotine replacement therapy]], NRT: pharmacological aids that are clinically proven to help with withdrawal symptoms, cravings, and urges (for example, transdermal [[nicotine patch]]es, [[nicotine gum|gum]], lozenges, sprays, and [[inhaler]]s)
*The antidepressant [[bupropion]], marketed under the brand name Zyban®, helps with withdrawal symptoms, cravings, and urges.
Bupropion is contraindicated in [[epilepsy]], seizure disorder; anorexia/bulimia (eating disorders), patients use of psychosis drugs (MAO inhibitors) within 14 days, patients undergoing abrupt discontinuation of ethanol or sedatives (including benzodiazepines such as Valium)<ref>Charles F. Lacy et al, ''LEXI-COMP'S Drug Information Handbook 12th edition''. Ohio, USA,2004</ref>
*Nicotinic receptor antagonist [[varenicline]] (Chantix®) (Champix® in the UK)
*Recently, a shot given multiple times over the course of several months, which primes the immune to produce antibodies which attach to nicotine and prevent it from reaching the brain, has shown promise in helping smokers quit. However, this approach is still in the experimental stages.  [http://news.wired.com/dynamic/stories/T/TOBACCO_VACCINE?SITE=WIRE&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2007-11-07-23-20-38]
 
===Alternative techniques===
Some 'alternative' techniques which have been used for smoking cessation are:
*[[Hypnosis]] clinical trials studying hypnosis as a method for smoking cessation have been inconclusive. (The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 2006, Issue 3.)
*[[Herbalism|Herbal preparations]] such as [[Kava]] and [[German_Chamomile | Chamomile]]
*[[Acupuncture]] clinical trials have shown that acupuncture's effect on smoking cessation is equal to that of sham/placebo acupuncture. (See Cochrane Review)
*Attending a self-help group such as [[List of Twelve-Step groups|Nicotine Anonymous]][http://www.nicotine-anonymous.org/] and electronic self-help groups such as Stomp It Out[http://www.experienceproject.com/mk/smokefree/index.php]
*Laser therapy based on [[acupuncture]] principles but without the needles.
*Quit meters: Small computer programs that keep track of quit statistics such as amount of "quit-time", cigarettes not smoked, and money saved.
*[[Self-help|Self-help books]] ([[Allen Carr]], FreshStartMethod etc.) Some of these claim very high success rates but little externally verified evidence of this success exists.
*[[Spirituality]] Spiritual beliefs and practices may help smokers quit.[http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/05/070507154054.htm]
*[[Smokeless tobacco]]: [[Snus]] is widely used in Sweden, and although it is much healthier than smoking, something which is reflected in the low cancer rates for Swedish men, there are still some concerns about its health impact. [http://www.snus.cc/snuff-health.aspx]
* Herbal and aromatherapy "natural" program formulations.
*[[Smoking reduction utensil]] ([[minitoke]])<ref>{{cite web | title="Smoking reduction may lead to unexpected quitting" | Author=Hughes et al. | accessdate=2007-12-27 |url=http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/58430.php}}</ref>

==Information for healthcare professionals==
 
Several studies have found that smoking cessation advice is not always given in primary care in patients aged 65 and older<ref>Maguire CP, Ryan J, Kelly A, O'Neill D, Coakley D, Walsh JB. Do patient age and medical condition influence medical advice to stop smoking? Age Ageing. 2000 May;29(3):264-6. PMID 10855911</ref><ref>Ossip-Klein DJ, McIntosh S, Utman C, Burton K, Spada J, Guido J. Smokers ages 50+: who gets physician advice to quit? Prev Med. 2000 Oct;31(4):364-9. PMID 11006061</ref>, despite the significant health benefits which can ensue in the older population<ref>Ferguson J, Bauld L, Chesterman J, Judge K. The English smoking treatment services: one-year outcomes. Addiction. 2005 Apr;100 Suppl 2:59-69. PMID 15755262</ref>.
 
One effective way to assist smokers who want to quit is through a telephone [[quitline]] which is easily available to all. Professionally run quitlines may help less dependent smokers, but those people who are more heavily dependent on nicotine should seek local smoking cessation services, where they exist, or assistance from a knowledgeable health professional, where they do not. Some evidence suggests that better results are achieved when counselling support and medication are used simultaneously. Quitting with a group of other people who want to quit is also a proven method of getting support, available through many organizations.
 
[[Health professional]]s may follow the "five As" with every smoking patient they come in contact with:<ref>{{cite journal |journal=CMAJ |date=2007 |volume=177 |issue=11 |pages=1373–80 |title= Treatment of tobacco dependence: integrating recent progress into practice |author= Le Foll B, George TP |doi=10.1503/cmaj.070627 |pmid=18025429 |url=http://www.cmaj.ca/cgi/content/full/177/11/1373}}</ref>

Overview

Tobacco use is the leading cause of preventable disease, disability, and death in the United States. Each year, nearly half a million Americans die prematurely of smoking or exposure to secondhand smoke and 16 million live with a serious illness caused by smoking. Smoking can cause repairable damage to various organs including the heart, lungs, kidneys, stomach and intestines. Smoking is associated with the causation of various cancers in the humans. Quitting smoking cuts cardiovascular risks, reduces risk for stroke to about half that of a nonsmoker’s, reduces risks for cancers of the mouth, throat, esophagus, and bladder by half within 5 years and ten years after quitting smoking, the risk for lung cancer drops by half. Smoking cessation can be achieved by some general, non-pharmacological and pharmacological strategies.

Clinical practice guidelines

Clinical practice guidelines by the USPSTF recommend[1]:

  • "Adults who are not pregnant: The USPSTF recommends that clinicians ask all adults about tobacco use, advise them to stop using tobacco, and provide behavioral interventions and U.S. Food and Drug Administration – approved pharmacotherapy for cessation to adults who use tobacco. GRADE A"
  • "Pregnant women: The USPSTF recommends that clinicians ask all pregnant woment about tobacco use, advise them to stop using tobacco, and provide behavioral interventions for cessation to pregnant women who use tobacco. GRADE A"
  • "Pregnant women: The USPSTF concludes that the current evidence is insufficient ot assess the balance of benefits and harms of pharmacotherpay interventions for tobacco cessation in pregnant women. GRADE I"
  • "All adults, including pregnant women: The USPSTF concludes that the current evidence is insufficient to recommend electronic nicotine delivery systems for tobacco cessation in adults, incuding pregnant women. The USPSTF recommends that clinicians direct patients who smoke tobacco to other cessation interventions with established effectiveness and safety. GRADE I"

Smoking and Health

The impact of smoking on the health can be summarized as follows:[2][3][4]


Effect of Smoking Cessation on various Risks

  • Quitting smoking cuts cardiovascular risks[5]. Just 1 year after quitting smoking, your risk for a heart attack drops sharply.
  • Within 2 to 5 years after quitting smoking, your risk for stroke may reduce to about that of a nonsmoker’s.
  • If you quit smoking, your risks for cancers of the mouth, throat, esophagus, and bladder drop by half within 5 years.
  • Ten years after you quit smoking, your risk for lung cancer drops by half.

Smoking cessation

General Principles

The 5As are an evidence-based framework for structuring smoking cessation in health care settings. The 5As include: Ask, Assess, Advise, Assist and Arrange follow-up.

The 5As Technique
Ask Identify and document tobacco use status for every patient at every visit
Advise In a clear, strong, and personalized manner, urge every tobacco user to quit.

Advices should be:

  • Clear:
    • I think it is important for you to quit smoking now and I can help you. Cutting down while you are ill is not enough.
  • Strong:
    • As your clinician, I need you to know that quitting smoking is the most important thing you can do to protect your health now and in the future. The clinic staff and I will help you.
  • Personalized:
    • Tie tobacco use to current health, and its social and economic costs, motivation level to quit, and the impact of tobacco use on children and others in the household.
Assess Assess willingness to make a quit attempt.
  • Is the tobacco user willing to make a quit attempt within the next 30 days?
Assist
  • For the patient willing to make a quit attempt, offer medication and provide or refer for counseling or additional treatment to help the patient quit.
  • For patients unwilling to quit at the time, provide interventions designed to increase future quit attempts.
Arrange follow-up
  • For the patient willing to make a quit attempt, arrange for followup contacts, beginning within the first week after the quit date.
  • For patients unwilling to make a quit attempt at the time, address tobacco dependence and willingness to quit at next clinic visit.

Pharmacological

First-line pharmacotherapy includes the multiple forms of nicotine replacement therapy (patch, nasal spray, losenge, gum, inhaler), sustained- release bupropion hydrochloride, and varenicline. Second line therapy includes clonidine and nortriptyline and have been found to be efficacious.[6]
The following is a description of the various treatment modalities available:[7]

  • Sustained release bupropion hydrochloride:
    • Dose: 150 mg every morning for 3 days, then 150 mg twice daily.
    • Duration: The duration of treatment is 7–12 weeks followed by a maintenance therapy up to 6 months.
    • Adverse effects: Insomnia and dry mouth.
    • Treatment must be initiated 1-2 weeks prior to the quit date.
    • Number needed to treat: 22[8]
  • Nicotine gum:
    • Dose: 1–24 cigarettes/day: 2mg gum (up to 24 pieces/day). ≥ 25 cigarettes/day: 4 mg gum (up to 24 pieces/day).
    • Duration: Up to 12 weeks
    • Adverse effects: Mouth soreness and dyspepsia
  • Nicotine inhaler:
    • Dose: 6–16 cartridges/day
    • Duration: Up to 6 months
    • Adverse effects: Local irritation of mouth and throat
  • Nicotine lozenges:
    • Dose: Time to 1st cigarette > 30 min: 2 mg lozenge. Time to 1st cigarette ≤ 30 min: 4 mg lozenge. 4–20 lozenges/day can be used based on the need.
    • Duration: Up to 12 weeks
    • Adverse effects: Nausea and heartburn
  • Nicotine nasal spray:
    • Dose: 8–40 doses/day
    • Duration: 3–6 months
    • Adverse effects: Nasal irritation
  • Varenicline:
    • Dose: 0.5 mg/day for 3 days followed by 0.5 mg twice/day for 4 days. Then, 1 mg twice/day
    • Duration: 3–6 months
    • Adverse effects: Nausea, trouble sleeping, vivid/strange dreams and depressed mood
    • Number needed to treat: 11[8]

Cost-effectiveness

The cost per year of life save from smoking cessation[9][10] is less than the costs per year of life saved from screening for lung cancer with low-dose computed tomography[11][12].
