title: Smoking cessation 3: multicomponent interventions.
abstract: In part 3 of this 3-part review of interventions for tobacco dependence, the authors focus on multicomponent interventions for smoking cessation. Interventions that combine behavioral and pharmacological components have been known to increase abstinence relative to a single type of therapy. Therefore, multicomponent interventions are recommended. The authors present both a brief intervention model and a multiple-session intervention model. These models can be used to create brief intensive, and quitline intervention programs and can be tailored to various types of clinicians and settings. The clinician can choose a multicomponent intervention program that is best suited to the patient's needs and preferences as well as to the clinical setting.
