Tobacco cessation

I am planning to use Smotect Azadi tablets for smoking. But I suffer from IBS C with ileitis. Will this product trigger my symptoms? I have seen some reviews where people complain of gas and bloating after taking these tablets.

Don't use Smotect Azadi with IBS-C and ileitis - it will likely worsen your symptoms. Better options: 1. Nicotine patches (safest for gut) 2. Varenicline/Champix (prescription) 3. Counseling + NRT Avoid herbal products with IBS. Use nicotine patches + behavioral therapy instead. Congratulations on quitting!
Health Tips
Your concern is valid. Smotect Azadi may worsen your IBS-C symptoms. Smotect Azadi Contents: - Herbal ingredients (Ashwagandha, Brahmi, etc.) - Some ingredients can cause bloating/gas - May trigger IBS symptoms With IBS-C + Ileitis: - High risk of worsening constipation - Gas and bloating likely - Herbal products unpredictable for IBS Better Options for You: 1. Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT): - Nicotine patches (safest for gut) - Nicotine gum - Less GI side effects 2. Prescription Medications: - Varenicline (Champix) - best success rate - Bupropion - if no depression - Discuss with doctor 3. Behavioral Therapy: - Counseling + NRT works best - Quit smoking apps - Support groups Avoid: - Herbal products with IBS - Oral smoking cessation products - Cold turkey (high relapse) Recommendation: Use nicotine patches + counseling instead of Smotect. Congratulations on deciding to quit!

Hello, I am Dr. Romain Rajan, General Physician. Your case has been allotted to me. I understand your concern. Smotect Azadi tablets are marketed as natural nicotine free supplements for smoking cessation, but they contain multiple herbal ingredients that can sometimes cause mild digestive side effects such as gas, bloating or altered bowel habits in sensitive individuals. Since you already have IBS with constipation and ileitis, your intestines are more sensitive than normal, so it is better to be cautious. Any herbal preparation that affects gut motility or digestion may trigger bloating, discomfort or pain in your case. ✅ Advices Avoid starting this medicine without first consulting your gastroenterologist. If you wish to try it, take a very small dose after meals and monitor for gas, bloating or change in stool pattern for a few days. Keep your IBS diet stable and avoid adding multiple new supplements together. What to Monitor Increase in bloating, abdominal discomfort or constipation. Any loose stools or new digestive symptoms. Management If you notice any of the above symptoms, stop the tablets immediately and continue your regular IBS medication and diet plan. You can explore non herbal smoking cessation options like nicotine gums, patches or medical counselling instead, which are better studied and safer for those with gut disorders. When to Consult a Doctor Immediately If abdominal pain, diarrhea or constipation worsens. If appetite or weight drops further. If any new symptom appears after starting the supplement. Every patient’s gut sensitivity is different. For safe and effective smoking cessation, it is important to review your complete health background and current medications in detail. 👉 You can reach out to me directly for this case and also connect with me in future for any medical consultation. I am available on Practo or on WhatsApp at 85271646 seven seven for a one on one consultation where you will receive A personalized smoking cessation plan Safe medicine or supplement options Quick follow ups to track your progress Take care and wishing you good health. Best regards, Dr. Romain Rajan General Physician

Hello, It’s really good that you’ve decided to quit smoking — that’s one of the best steps you can take for your gut health and overall well-being. Regarding Smotect Azadi tablets, while they are herbal, a few ingredients (like certain natural alkaloids and plant extracts) can sometimes cause gas, bloating, or mild abdominal discomfort, especially in patients with IBS-C or ileitis, where the intestine is already sensitive. It would be safer to start with a very small dose initially and observe for 2-3 days, but ideally, we should review your IBS medications, bowel pattern, and any ongoing supplements before starting it. There are alternative and more gut-friendly options available for tobacco cessation as well. I’d recommend a short video consultation so we can go through your history in detail and choose a plan that helps you quit smoking without worsening your gut symptoms. Warm regards, Dr. Yash Duragkar MD Medicine | Internal Medicine & Lifestyle Disorders

You should use this product if they claim that it helps you in kicking your habit of smoking. It may have an effect on your IBS because IBS is known to be affected by psychological factors. But quitting smoking is more important.
