WANT TO QUIT SMOKING?

If you haven’t set a date to quit smoking, yet, here are a few tips to get you started.

• Choose a method for quitting that fits your personal needs. Discuss your options with your pharmacist or doctor.
• Don’t go it alone. Reach out to family members and try to recruit other smokers you know to join you in quitting.
• Enroll in a counseling support program, either from a smoking cessation organization or as part of an over-the-counter nicotine replacement therapy.
