What’s the Best Way to Quit Smoking?

Research shows you’re most likely to quit successfully when you work with a healthcare provider and combine two proven treatments:

• Medication therapy – Smoking cessation medications can reduce cravings, ease withdrawal symptoms, and make smoking less rewarding. These treatments can double your chances of quitting for good.

• Behavioral counseling – Support from a professional helps you explore your motivation, beliefs, and triggers, and create a personalized plan to stay tobacco-free.

Together, these approaches provide the best chance for long-term success.

About smoking cessation

The most effective way to quit for good is by combining medication (to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms) with behavioral counseling (to build motivation and manage triggers). An iVisitDoc provider can help you create a personalized quit plan.

Common symptoms include cravings, irritability, restlessness, difficulty concentrating, and trouble sleeping. These are normal signs that your body is adjusting to life without nicotine.

Withdrawal symptoms usually peak within the first week after quitting and fade over 2–4 weeks. Some people may experience mild cravings longer, but they lessen over time.

Benefits start almost immediately — heart rate and blood pressure improve within hours, and lung function and circulation continue to recover over time. You’ll breathe easier, have more energy, and lower your risk for serious diseases.

Offer encouragement and patience. Avoid judgment, celebrate small wins, and remind them that relapses are part of the process — not failures. Encourage them to connect with an iVisitDoc provider for professional support.

Some nicotine patches contain latex in the adhesive. If you have a latex allergy, ask your provider to recommend a latex-free brand or alternative nicotine replacement option.
