"I've decided to quit, now what?"
Research shows that the best success rates come from a combination of behaviour modification, group support, and medications to help reduce nicotine withdrawal and increase cessation success.
BUTT OUT gives specific guidance to help change behaviours associated with tobacco use and also provides essential support for individuals who want to quit using tobacco.
You may be eligible to get nicotine replacement therapies or medications at DND expense if you participate in BUTT OUT.
BUTT OUT at CFB Trenton is an individual format and only requires one meeting with a BUTT OUT facilitator to register for the program.
How does it work?
- If you are not sure which medication to use or would like to use Zyban or Champix, meet with an MO to discuss options and receive a prescribed course of tobacco cessation therapy. (A prescription is not required for the patch and/or gum)
- Register with Butt Out before visiting the pharmacy.*
- Meet with Butt Out facilitator to receive materials and set quit date.
- Pick up medication from pharmacy.
*BUTT OUT registration is available by appointment. Please call the Health Promotion office at x3768 for bookings.
