What is the best product or strategy to help someone quit smoking? -
My mother started taking the -Wellbutrin- pill. It-s also called Bupropion or Zyban.........She has been a smoker for years, and once she took these pills for 3-4 weeks, and then no more pills, she stopped cold turkey..............
Anyway it-s used to help people stop smoking by reducing withdrawal effects.
Good Luck!
It may sound silly but I would think the most efficient strategy to help someone quit smoking is a caring family or a loving girlfriend/boyfriend/husband/wife. Love does things to people and can change them dramatically. =)
Just toss em. You-ll only be crazy for about ten days but it is worth it. Cheaper too.
good luck
Hope

a patch
Nicotine patches work, but they make you have amazingly vivid dreams. That could be good or bad. Also, if they keep something around to help with the oral fixation like sunflower seeds or gum.
getting someone to slap it out of your mouth every attempt you make to light it!
when you are diagnosed with lung cancer or a bad heart, or lung disease.
ask God to give you the strength....I did...I smoked a pack - a 1/2 a day....I was totally addicted...he took the urge away from me....I didnt smoke again....that was 25 years ago.
make them visit the lung cancer wards, regularly
The smokers patch works well. Also for 2 weeks before your set quitting date keep a diary marking down each time you had a cigarette, the time and whether you craved the smoke or not. You will notice a pattern of smokes you craved and habit or just boredom smokes. One week before your quitting date cut out your boredom and habit smokes. The last 3 days of this period mark a stripe half way down your smoke and only smoke to the mark. By the time your quit day arrives you will already have cut down drastically. Drinking lots of water helps to flush the nicotine out of your system as well. Hope this helps. Good luck.
The dirty little secret is that no program has more than a 25% success rate after six months.
Generally speaking, the best strategy simply involves talking about it. Some form of behavioral therapy or group therapy is beneficial to cessation.
It is strongly suggested that psychological treatment accompany any medical treatment (e.g. nicotine replacement).
first the person ha to want to stop.........once that is realized then the best way is to get the the patch, the gum , or even go to a smokers meeting with the person to show support
I smoked for a long time and I quit, haven-t smoked one for about 2 years now. I think that cutting back is the best approach to ween yourself off cigarettes, that-s how I did it. Just start cutting back until you get to one a day then you really wont need it anymore and you will be able to quit for good
The Mormon missionaries have a program that is based on replacing the urges of cigeraets with grapefruit juice. I won-t spoil the suprise of why it-s grapefruit juice. If you call them and tell them you don-t want to hear about their religion but just stop smoking, they will still be glad to help you. You can get the number off of www.lds.org. Good luck
