There are primarily two medicines for smoking cessation. But I have to take some history from you before giving you any medicine. Consult me if you want good treatment.

You will need to consult your doctor for a prescription and you can get the medicine which will help to ease the withdrawal and also the craving. When quitting, you must take one day at a time; though you must give up all smoking at once, and promptly. If you look too far ahead you will get discouraged and will give up.

Hello and welcome to Lybrate. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Every de-addiction medicine has its own side effects. There are other behavior modification techniques for smoking cessation and alcohol de-addiction. I suggest telephonic counseling and online psychotherapy for you.
You can contact me for further advice and treatment options. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care.

Many a times clients make up their mind only to loose motivation midway. Make sure you don't do the same. Before medicines, try this. Set a quit date and keep on decreasing till that day. Abstain from smoking from the quit date. You may face withdrawal once you completely stop smoking. If you can't control withdrawals meet a psychiatrist for medicines. There is a high chance you can do it without medicines. Just see that the quit date is not too far away.

Get out of a tempting situation. Where you are or what you’re doing may be triggering the craving. If ...more

Dear lybrate-user, to stop smoking simply take to higher taste like meditation and chanting by which the lower taste of smoking would automatically diminish. You can do meditation and chant any names of god who you have faith in. This has been proved scientifically too. Hope this helps. Sincerely
