Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT)
Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) helps people quit smoking by providing a controlled dose of nicotine without the harmful effects of cigarettes. It comes in various forms, including patches, gums, lozenges, inhalers, and nasal sprays. NRT reduces withdrawal symptoms and cravings, making it easier for individuals to focus on breaking the habit. It is often used alongside counseling or support programs. While NRT is safer than smoking, it's important to use it as directed and consult a healthcare provider to find the best approach for quitting.
