Abstract

The transdermal nicotine system is an adhesive patch that slowly and continuously delivers nicotine into the bloodstream by percutaneous absorption. The transdermal nicotine system has been shown to be effective as an aid to smoking cessation (1). Concurrent behavioural intervention including a relapse prevention component enhances the maintenance of abstinence following smoking cessation (2).
