There is a range of effective stop smoking treatments available in the United Kingdom.<\/p>
<\/p>
Licensed nicotine replacement therapy (NRT), particularly different products used in combination, increases the rate of quitting by 50% to 60%. The research findings are available in a report at the following link:<\/p>
