Long-Term Effectiveness of a Quitline for Smoking Cessation: Results of a Randomized Controlled Trial
Telephone counselling provided by the national German quitline for smoking cessation demonstrates effectiveness in promoting long-term abstinence from cigarettes and tobacco. Increased awareness and use of the quitline could promote cessation rates in Germany. Given the rising popularity of novel nicotine consumer products, counselling protocols should incorporate information on their risks and potential as cessation tools.
