Dear sir/ma'am, My father is having a strong addiction of taking drugs like marijuana and cigarettes. He is diabetic patient and also having heart problems. Last year he has gone through by pass heart surgery. We have tried our best to make him understand to give up this bad habits but no results. Kindly suggest me if I can take help of "No addiction" tablets or some other methods. Also notify it's side effects.

It is better that you admit your father into a rehabilitation centre that does not allow smoking, and do not bring him out until he has completely resolved the addiction. Even after enduring bypass surgery if he does not discontinue, he obviously suffers from a strong death-wish. He needs to resolve that particularly in treatment.
