Smoking Cessation
Our expert Pharmacists are here to help you take the first step toward a healthier, smoke-free life. Whether you’ve tried many times before or you’re thinking about quitting for the first time, we offer personalised, evidence-based support to help you succeed.
Take the First Steps to a Smoke-Free Life
Quitting smoking can transform your health in ways that few other changes can. Tobacco smoke contains thousands of toxic chemicals that cause cancer, heart disease, stroke, and chronic lung conditions. Even occasional smoking increases serious health risks for you and those around you.
The good news? Your body begins repairing itself as soon as you quit.
Within hours your oxygen levels improve, within weeks your circulation and lung function start to recover, and long-term quitting dramatically reduces your risk of heart disease, stroke, and many cancers — with benefits increasing the longer you stay smoke-free (1) - Opens in new tab.
Our Pharmacists are experts in smoking cessation. We'll work with you one-on-one to create a simple, personalised quit plan that fits your life. With proven nicotine replacement options and evidence-based support, we make the transition to a smoke-free life smoother and more achievable.
Now is always the best time to start.
Considering E-Cigarettes or Vapes?
If you're considering whether e‑cigarettes or nicotine vapes can help you quit smoking, it’s important to speak with your Doctor first for personalised guidance on safe and effective options.
While some people have successfully quit using e‑cigarettes, evidence for their overall effectiveness remains limited, and they are not considered first‑line therapies. Nicotine vapes are also not approved or listed on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), and single‑use disposable vapes cannot be sold in pharmacies.
Therapeutic vaping may be an option for people who have not achieved success with approved quit‑smoking treatments, as directed by their doctor. Pharmacy 777 Pharmacists can dispense prescribed vaping products, provide advice on correct use, and support you with a structured plan to reduce nicotine dependence.
