Support to Stop Smoking

At the first appointment you will have an opportunity to discuss nicotine replacement therapy and medication, and you may be given a prescription. You will agree a quit date, and thereafter you will have a number of follow up appointments at the surgery to support and encourage you to continue to refrain from smoking.
