This chapter outlines requirements for quitting smoking successfully, and for effective treatments. It presents practical guidelines for physicians and allied health care providers with specific recommendations for how to motivate and help patients quit “on their own” and how to select more intensive backup treatment if needed. Useful guides, references, and resources are suggested, with recommendations concerning optimal use of nicotine chewing gum.
