Frequently Asked Questions

What are the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal?

Nicotine withdrawal typically produces irritability, anxiety, difficulty concentrating, increased appetite, restlessness, depressed mood, and strong cravings — beginning within hours of the last use and peaking in the first 2–3 days. Most physical symptoms resolve within 2–4 weeks, though cravings can persist longer.

What treatments are most effective for quitting smoking?

Combination therapy — pairing a cessation medication with behavioral support — produces the highest quit rates. Varenicline (Chantix) has the strongest evidence. Bupropion and nicotine replacement therapy (patch, gum, lozenge, inhaler) are also effective. Combining a nicotine patch with a short-acting form further improves success rates.

Is nicotine replacement therapy safe?

Yes — NRT is safe for most people, including those with cardiovascular disease. The nicotine delivered through NRT is significantly less harmful than the nicotine plus thousands of toxins in cigarette smoke. NRT is available over the counter and in prescription-strength formulations.

How long will cravings last after quitting?

Physical withdrawal peaks in the first week and substantially diminishes by 2–4 weeks. Psychological cravings — triggered by situational cues — can persist for months. Having a plan for high-risk situations (stress, alcohol, social settings) is one of the most important predictors of sustained cessation.

What side effects are associated with smoking cessation treatments?

Varenicline may cause nausea (improved by taking with food), vivid dreams, and rarely mood changes. Bupropion may cause insomnia and dry mouth and lowers seizure threshold. NRT can cause skin irritation (patch), hiccups, or mouth soreness depending on formulation. All are considered very favorable relative to continued smoking.
