One effective way to assist smokers who want to quit is
through a telephone quitline which is easily available to all.
Professionally run quitlines may help less dependent smokers,
but those people who are more heavily dependent on nicotine
should seek local smoking cessation services, where they exist,
or assistance from a knowledgeable health professional, where
they do not.
Some evidence suggests that better results are achieved when
counseling support and medication are used simultaneously.
Quitting with a group of other people who want to quit is also a
proven method of getting support, available through many
organizations.
