Halton smokers can again enroll in the Smoking Treatment for Ontario Patients (STOP) Program, and receive free nicotine replacement therapy (NRT). Halton Regional Chair Want help to butt out? Gary Carr said they want to help people keep their New Year 's quit smoking resolutions. "By working with the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health to implement the STOP Program in Halton, we can help prevent chronic disease in our community," he said. For many smokers the cost of nicotine replacement products is a barrier to quitting. The evidence-based STOP Program provides five weeks of free NRT. NRT is a practical support to alleviate nicotine withdrawal symptoms, and has been demonstrated to be effective in helping individuals stop smoking. Twice as many people quit smoking using the STOP program as those who try to quit on their own. In addition to providing N RT, S T O P o f f e r s educational material to encourage participants to make broader changes to improve their health. Often, smoking does not occur in isolation, but rather accompanies other risk factors for disease, such as poor nutrition and lack of physical activity.
