Smoking cessation is, undoubtedly, one of the most difficult tasks to conquer. Cigarette smoking continues to be the leading preventable cause of death and disease in developed countries (Hung, Dunlop, Perez and Cotter, 2011). Over 68% of smokers want to quit. Many try multiple times but return because of withdrawal symptoms. A smoker is four times more likely to successfully quit if they are offered medication therapy along with ongoing support, than by attempting to quit by willpower alone (Bostock-Cox, 2010). Combining medications for smoking cessation produces higher quit rates than using one single medication (Loh, Piper, Schlam and others, 2011). While there are multiple cessation adjuncts available, the utilization of these by the both the patient and the health care provider is often lacking. One of the barriers to medication use is education of both the provider and the patient. Creating a structured education plan, for both the patient and the provider, to bring awareness to the benefits and success of using combination pharmacotherapy, will enable smokers to successfully quit smoking. Furthermore, smokers are more likely to quit when advised by a physician or health care provider. Too often, clinicians fail to screen for tobacco use (CDC, 2012). Provihealth carehcare practitioners with screening tools enables the physician or nurse to screen for tobacco use, and advise patients to quit smoking. This project will provide a screening tool to be used by practitioners for an in-patient setting; educate both the patient and provider; and encourage the use of combination pharmacotherapy for smoking cessation.

Comorbidity of alcoholism and major depression may exert a detrimental effect on the likelihood of smoking cessation. This study evaluated whether smoking cessation is enhanced by treatment of depression in recovering alcoholics with major depression history. Subjects were 29 (15 female, 14 male) adult, recovering alcoholics with an average of 6.8 years of continuous alcohol sobriety. They were randomly assigned to a 12-week program of: (1) Brand Fading Alone (BF) (n = 16), or (2) Brand Fading + Cognitive-Behavioral Depression Therapy (CBT) (n = 13). The major assessments occurred at baseline, post-treatment (1-week post-quit), and at 1- and 3-month follow-ups. The dependent variables were verified point-prevalence smoking abstinence rates and measures of nicotine withdrawal symptoms, including depression. At both the post-treatment and 1-month follow-up periods, 69.2% (9 of 13) of subjects in the CBT condition were abstinent from smoking compared with 31.3% (5 of 16) of those in the BF group, X2(1, N = 29) = 4.144, p =.0417. At 3-month follow-up, subjects in the CBT condition were more likely to report smoking abstinence (46.2% (6 of 13)) than those in the BF group (25.0% (4 of 16)), although group differences were not significant. One-way analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), using baseline scores as covariates, showed that post-treatment ratings on the Nicotine Withdrawal Questionnaire-Mood differed significantly between groups, with lower mean scores for participants in the CBT condition, F (1, 24) = 4.408, p =.038. No significant group differences emerged on the Profile of Mood States, measures of depression (Beck Depression Inventory, Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression), or on measures of cognitive processes, at post-treatment or 1-month follow-up. Initial treatment differences in smoking outcome were not apparently mediated by changes in depression or cognitive processes. It is concluded that adjunctive depression therapy is useful in facilitating short-term smoking cessation, yet, more effective maintenance interventions are needed to bolster long-term abstinence rates.

The health and economic costs of tobacco use in military and veteran populations are high. In 2007, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and the Department of Defense (DoD) requested that the Institute of Medicine (IOM) make recommendations on how to reduce tobacco initiation and encourage cessation in both military and veteran populations. In its 2009 report, Combating Tobacco in Military and Veteran Populations, the authoring committee concludes that to prevent tobacco initiation and encourage cessation, both DoD and VA should implement comprehensive tobacco-control programs.
