Studies show that for most smokers, it seems necessary to quit en- tirely, in order to stop smok- ing—cutting down just doesn't work! Used as an adjunct in quit smoking programs, a new prescription chewing gum is helping thousands kick the smoking habit. The gum re- leases small amounts of nicotine into the lining of the mouth reducing withdrawal symptoms.
