Smoking Cessation Medications
Our smoking cessation medications include nicotine chewing pieces (gum), nicotine patches, nicotine inhalers, oral sprays, nicotine lozenges, bupropion, and varenicline. Research shows that these medications can increase your chance of success when used as directed and combined with support groups or counselling.
We also follow different methods such as host group counselling and talk sessions that can often give a better result than using them alone.
Stop smoking. Breathe easy.
We can help you find out everything you need to know to achieve your goal of becoming smoke-free. You just have to speak with our Pharmasave pharmacist to arrange a quit smoking consultation.
