Quitting Smoking Assessment, Prescribing and Follow-up

Our pharmacists will provide a one to one support service and advice to ODB recipients who want to give up smoking. The program includes a readiness assessment where a patient may enrol in the smoking cessation program with the pharmacy as well as a first consultation and a number of follow-up counselling sessions over a one-year period. The pharmacist will help to facilitate access to and where appropriate prescribe appropriate smoking cessation medications.
