Smoking Cessation PHAR10400 University of Manchester: TBL 7

If you’ve considered quitting smoking, your local pharmacy can put you on the right track. Your pharmacist can offer one to one support, advice on how to manage your withdrawal symptoms, cope with your cravings, and refer you to appropriate support services. If necessary, your pharmacist can also recommend suitable Nicotine Replacement Therapies, so you can quit smoking without having unpleasant withdrawal symptoms. This service is widely available and doesn’t require an appointment or a referral from your GP, so when you are ready to quit, visit your local pharmacy and start your journey to quitting now!
