Hi, kindly consult your psychiatrist for smoking de addiction, which includes counseling, nicotine replacement therapy, non-nicotine pharmacotherapy, combination pharmacotherapy. Highly nicotine-dependent smokers may require initial therapy for 6 months or longer. Some individuals may require low-dose maintenance therapy for years.
