Overview

Retrospective analysis shows varying effectiveness of bupropion, nicotine patch, and cytisine, indicating unique roles in treatment.

Key Points

  • Cytisine significantly reduced cravings in patients after three months, leading to increased cessation rates.
  • Among the 565 participants, those using cytisine reported fewer side effects compared to bupropion and nicotine patch.
  • Assessment included FTND scores to evaluate nicotine dependence and treatment success across therapies.
  • Statistical analysis revealed notable differences in effectiveness across the smoking cessation methods used.
