This study found that a hospital-based smoking cessation program using nicotine polacrilex (Nicorette) alongside group support achieved a 40-47% success rate at one year. This verified success rate was achieved using a unique nicotine polacrilex regimen.

Area of Science:

  • Addiction Medicine
  • Behavioral Psychology
  • Pharmacology

Background:

  • Smoking remains a leading cause of preventable death.
  • Nicotine replacement therapies (NRTs) are established smoking cessation aids.
  • Behavioral support is crucial for long-term smoking cessation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of a specific nicotine polacrilex regimen within a hospital-based smoking cessation program.
  • To assess the long-term (1-year) success rate of smoking cessation.
  • To compare the utilized nicotine polacrilex regimen with standard approaches.

Main Methods:

  • One hundred eighteen volunteers participated in a hospital-based smoking cessation program.
  • Nicotine polacrilex (Nicorette) was administered as an adjunct to behavioral modification (group support).

  • The specific regimen for nicotine polacrilex use was documented and adhered to 'within labeling' guidelines.
  • Main Results:

    • A chemically verified 1-year success rate of 40% to 47% was achieved.
    • The employed nicotine polacrilex regimen differed significantly from those commonly used in other programs.
    • The combination of nicotine polacrilex and behavioral support demonstrated substantial efficacy.

    Conclusions:

    • A hospital-based smoking cessation program utilizing nicotine polacrilex with group support can achieve high success rates.
    • The specific administration regimen of nicotine polacrilex is a critical factor in program efficacy.
    • This approach offers a viable and effective strategy for smoking cessation.
