title: [ABC of smoking cessation. Nicotine replacement therapy].
abstract: Nicotine replacement therapy doubles the success rate in smoking cessation during all intervention levels - so its effectiveness is higher with the most intensive support. The patient can choose the NRT form since the effectiveness does not differ substantially. Nicotine replacement therapy should be offered to each nicotine dependent smoker willing to stop. In the case of abstinence the treatment should be taken at least 6 to 8 weeks.
