Smoking Cessation

Stop Smoking....

Smoking Cessation Using Champix: Some of our pharmacies are able to offer Champix, as an alternative to Nicotine Replacement Therapy, to support your quit attempt which was previously only available from your GP.

So how does it work? It’s really clever. Rather than simply replacing the nicotine you get each time you smoke with an alternative source of nicotine, Champix releases a chemical which blocks the receptors in the brain that produce the cravings for nicotine. You carry on smoking when you first start taking Champix, but after a short time, the cravings to smoke will stop you wanting to light up!

Make an appointment with your pharmacist/Stop Smoking Advisor today and see if you qualify for the 12 week support programme. Hopefully this will be the best discussion you ever make!
