the chances of achieving cessation. These include intensive group behavioral<br />

counseling, other individualized behavior therapies <strong>and</strong> several types of pharmacotherapy.<br />

Pharmacotherapies include different nicotine replacement medications (gum,<br />

patch, lozenge, oral inhaler, <strong>and</strong> nasal spray) <strong>and</strong> bupropion, as well as medications<br />

that have been demonstrated to be effective but have not been explicitly approved or<br />

marketed for smoking cessation (nortriptyline <strong>and</strong> clonidine). Many other<br />

substances have been used but show little evidence of efficacy (Henningfield et al.<br />

1998; Fiore et al. 2000; US DHHS 2000).<br />
