I've had other medicines before, like a two week course that kills nicotine addiction (can't remember name). But then you need to stay off of cigarettes and not smoke again period. That's the hard part.
Quitting smoking is about psychology as well as biology, so you need to fix your habits and behaviour as well. No chai sutta for ex.
it would be really great if you share medicine name, i ll consult with dr and take it.
There are mix re reviews for smotest. so not sure whether to take it or not.

whenever you feel like smoking, just do the action of smoking like you usually do, but without the cigarette
it works
Try to be with non smokers more. If you are around smokers, surely you will smoke more. Try to reduce no. of cigs per day then those smoking days too.

Keep trying. I was a smoker for 10 years. Picked the dirty habit from college. For nearly 3 years I was in the zone of trying to quit. I kept trying and then finally was able to fully give it up. I wrote the following points down and hope it may help you.
Note: the only medication that can get you out of the habit is the changes you bring to your own mind. Nothing else will work.
* Don't be afraid to drop the buds. Throw when you are half way through.
* Don't go to the usual smoking places where you go often to light up.
* Until you quit do not hang out with smoking buddies when they smoke.
* The carving to smoke only stays for minutes so control it.
* Divert your attention to other thing when you carve for cigarettes.
* Build self confidence by repeating "you don't want to smoke" in your mind all the time. Your subconscious mind takes care of the rest.
* It usually takes more than 10 attempts for a smoker to quit. So failing is part of the process. Don't be depressed that you are unable to quit in the first few attempts. Keep trying.
Tell all your office colleagues you are going to quit
This will help you stay accountable (you wouldn't want to look like a liar in front of them right?)
office colleagues are the biggest mfers who support this death accelerator by glorifying "sutta"
My friend got SCC for smoking and I used to smoke with him once I got to know tat he got cancer I quit, if that doesn’t motivate you and I don’t know what will..
You don't quit anything, you just practice to bring the quantity to zero within a stipulated time.
RN, you are doing 3/day, push for 3/7days, then go for 3/month, then you decide whether you wanna smoke or not. Simple, but you need GUTS to achieve this.
Btw, Excel and a dashboard helps a lot
