Outcomes of the first adolescent-focused smoking cessation clinic in Türkiye on tobacco control
Our findings suggest that not receiving extra pocket money and smoking fewer cigarettes at the time of admission are associated with higher quit rates. Even short-term use of nicotine patches and addressing symptoms such as coughing may support adolescents' intention to quit. Adolescent smoking cessation clinics provide a valuable opportunity to address these factors in collaboration with families.
