 Quitting tobacco is hard — you know that. It is common for people to try to quit several times before they finally do. With each time you try, you learn more about what works for you and eventually, you can succeed.  

Only you can decide when you are ready to quit. Once you've made the decision, having the right tools can help make your quit attempt successful. ​

Did you know combining counseling and FDA-approved quit medication can double your chance of successfully quitting tobacco? View the tools below that can assist you in your quit journey.​​
