Key points

  • Nicotine dependency shapes daily habits and routines, so quitting often means building new coping strategies alongside any medication.
  • Cessation aids span nicotine replacement products such as patches, gum, and lozenges, and non-nicotine tablets including varenicline and bupropion.
  • Cravings and the risk of relapse can persist well beyond the first weeks, making long-term support important.

Medicines listed for Smoking Cessation

The listed products for smoking cessation contain two non-nicotine ingredients: Bupropion and Varenicline. Both are taken as tablets and act on brain pathways linked to nicotine reward, rather than replacing nicotine itself. They are sometimes used alongside behavioural support to help a person quit smoking.
