Nicotine replacement therapy

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is a medical approach designed to help people quit smoking by providing a controlled dose of nicotine without the harmful chemicals found in cigarettes. NRT products, such as patches, gum, lozenges, inhalers, and nasal sprays, ease withdrawal symptoms and cravings, making it easier to stop smoking. By gradually reducing nicotine intake, individuals can focus on breaking the habit of smoking itself. NRT is most effective when combined with behavioral support and counseling, helping smokers successfully transition to a smoke-free life.
