My doc had a plan that almost worked for me, it might for you. I say it almost worked, but my ex was a 3 pack a day smoker (I still carry life insurance on her) and did all she could to sabotage my quitting smoking. Anyway I did quit for several weeks, just didn't stick with the program, illustrating that you REALLY want to have to quit.

He did a combination of Wellbuterin and the patch. Trade name is Zyban, generic is Wellbuterin. Zyban even has a website dedicated to smoking cessation to help walk you through it step by step. It isnt' inexpensive though, luckily my company was paying for the program.

Anyway, except for me the doc said he had the highest success rate using the combination of the two.

Don't try and go it alone, it is a physical as well as mental addiction, you'll need some support.

Good luck
