Medications can help you stop smoking by controling the urge to smoke.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved five medications to help you quit smoking:

Bupropion SR—Available by prescription.

Nicotine gum—Available over-the-counter.

Nicotine inhaler—Available by prescription.

Nicotine nasal spray—Available by prescription.

Nicotine patch—Available by prescription and over-the-counter. Ask your health care provider for advice and carefully read the information on the package.

All of these medications may double your chances of quitting smoking for good.
