Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of quitting smoking?
Quitting smoking provides immediate and long-term health benefits. Within days to weeks of quitting, your blood pressure and circulation should improve, and you'll start to notice better lung function and increased energy. Long-term benefits include a reduced risk of heart disease, stroke, lung cancer, and respiratory conditions. Quitting also improves your overall quality of life by reducing the risk of smoking-related illnesses and improving your ability to exercise and breathe more easily.
What is nicotine replacement therapy?
Nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) is a method used to help people quit smoking by providing a controlled dose of nicotine. Common NRT products include nicotine patches, gum, lozenges, inhalers and nasal sprays. NRT aims to reduce withdrawal symptoms and cravings, making it easier for individuals to gradually quit smoking. NRT can be part of a comprehensive smoking cessation plan, however, it is essential to use NRT under the guidance of healthcare professionals to maximise effectiveness and safety.
How long does it take to quit smoking?
The time it takes to quit smoking varies from person to person, depending on factors such as how long you've been smoking and your motivation to quit. Some people may quit after a few weeks of treatment, while others may require several months or even years. Quitting smoking is a process that often involves multiple attempts, and each attempt brings you closer to success. Our pharmacy team will offer support and guidance throughout your journey to ensure that you have the tools and resources you need to quit for good.
