Dear Doctor, greetings!!! I am 28 years old male and addicted to smoking habits (Cigerates). Am working for a software company and I smoke 10+ ciggies per day since 2 years, i want to quit this habit, but can't bcz of some tensions or may be for some other reasons. I will decide in the morning that I will quit today, but i could not. Sometimes I will reduce in numbers but cant quit fully. Need your help, suggestion, to get rid of this habit. Please help me Sir

welcome to hcm,
if you want to really quit smoking, it can be done with your effort.
if you were my patient i will treat you with medications such as buproprion. which stops the craving sensation for cigarette smoking
but as this drug is a prescription based medicine i would like you to consult it with your treating physician and this will help you in stopping smoking.
hope this explains.
with regards
