Filter by:Smoking is often a problem for alcohol dependent individuals. Many people who seek treatment for alcohol dependence are unable to quit smoking. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of bupropion, an antidepressant medication, in treating smokers receiving treatment for alcohol dependence.
This study tests whether stopping smoking by gradually cutting down first is more or less successful than stopping abruptly. We hypothesize that stopping by gradually cutting down first will produce more abstinence than stopping abruptly.
This study is to be conducted in subjects with mild-to-moderate COPD who are cigarette smokers with the intent of demonstrating differences in smoking cessation between varenicline and placebo.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether or not varenicline will help people with cardiovascular disease quit smoking and to confirm it is safe in these patients.
The purpose of this research study is to determine if topiramate is safe and effective in the treatment of smoking cessation
The purpose of the proposed study is to conduct a randomized, double-blind clinical trial to compare adjunct treatment with 50 mg oral naltrexone vs. placebo in conjunction with standard smoking cessation treatment with nicotine patch and counseling. Hypotheses: 1. Naltrexone will improve smoking cessation quit rates, as measured at the end of active treatment (3 months) and during long term follow up (1 year). 2. Weight and smoking-related variables (i.e., less weight gain, as well as reduced craving and withdrawal) will be important factors by which naltrexone improves smoking cessation outcome. 3. These effects are predicted to be stronger in women compared to men.
Nicotine replacement therapies (NRT) have proven efficacy to help smokers quit. However, their effectiveness is low. This study aims to answer the question: Does the dose adjustment of NRT according the saliva concentration of nicotine's main metabolite: cotinine improve their efficacy compared with the lack of dose adjustment (usual care) in smoking patients with smoking related disease condition.
Nicotine is highly addictive and many individuals are unable to quit smoking even with treatment. The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of various doses of NicVAX in treating nicotine dependent individuals.
Women typically have a more difficult time quitting smoking than men. Little research has been done to understand the differences between men and women that may cause this distinction. This study will assess whether the reduced effectiveness of nicotine replacement therapy in women is caused by gender differences in the withdrawal suppression induced by nicotine replacement therapy.
