Smoking Cessation Service

This service comprises of a 12-week programme where one of our pharmacists or technicians can help support you on your journey to stop smoking.

During the initial consultation we will take the necessary details and discuss the nature of your habit and reasons for wanting to quit. We will then go through the potential nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) products that are available and which ones may suit you. We can also suggest good coping strategies for dealing with withdrawal symptoms.

Once we have decided on a treatment pathway together, you will be provided with the appropriate products. For the first few weeks the consultations are weekly then moving to fortnightly around halfway through the programme.

This service does require that you stop smoking completely once it begins. We will monitor your carbon monoxide levels at each appointment to check that this has been adhered to.
