Smoking cessation
Ready to stop smoking?
Smoking cessation is the process of quitting smoking, a crucial step towards improving your health and reducing the risk of smoking-related diseases such as heart disease, lung cancer, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Quitting smoking can be challenging due to nicotine addiction and withdrawal symptoms, but with the right support and treatment strategy, it's achievable.
Mahalo facilitates access to healthcare providers specialized in smoking cessation. Through virtual consultations, you can receive personalized support, including counseling, prescription medications to manage cravings and withdrawal symptoms, and ongoing encouragement. This approach offers a convenient and effective way to embark on your journey to quit smoking, ensuring you have the guidance and resources needed for success, all from the safety and comfort of your home.
Precautions
- Set a quit date and prepare for it mentally. Remove cigarettes, lighters, and ashtrays from your home to reduce temptation.
- Seek support from friends, family, or support groups. Let them know you're quitting and ask for encouragement and accountability.
- Find healthy alternatives to manage cravings, such as chewing sugar-free gum, snacking on carrot sticks, or practicing deep breathing exercises.
Common Medications
