The most effective quitting method is the combination of counseling, social support and the use of cessation medication. For counseling, there are quitlines. These toll-free telephone centers are available to anyone in the U.S.. Each quitline is staffed by trained cessation experts. The quitline counselors tailor a quit plan and advice for each individual caller. The efficacy of this approach has been documented in a growing number of studies. The first major statewide study, conducted in California, showed that quitline use more than doubled a smoker's chance of successfully quitting. Call 1 800 QUIT NOW and see for yourself.
