Stop Smoking Advice

It is never too late to stop smoking. Smoking kills over 100,000 people per year in the United Kingdom.

If you are serious about stopping you can get smoking cessation advice from local pharmacies who run stop smoking services. We can also support you on your journey to stop smoking. We offer smoking cessation appointments and information about the local smoking cessation groups where you can get support from fellow smokers who wish to give up.

Tips to help you stop smoking:

  • Pick a date and keep to it
  • Plan your attempt to quit smoking
  • Support from family and friends is vital
  • Reward yourself with ‘treats’ from the money you save
  • Always take one day at a time
  • Be positive

We can advise you about various treatments and interventions to help you quite including Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT). NRT increases your chances of quitting successfully. The products are available on prescription.
