Pharmacotherapy of Nicotine Dependence

  • Chapter
Pharmacological Aspects of Drug Dependence

Part of the book series: Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology ((HEP,volume 118))

Abstract

Several excellent narrative and meta-analytic reviews of different pharmacotherapies for smoking cessation have recently been published (GLASSMAN and COVEY 1990; GOLDSTEIN et al. 1991; GOURLAY and MCNEIL 1990; HUGHES 1993a; JARVIK and HENNINGFIELD 1988, 1993; JARVIK and SCHNEIDER 1992; LEE and D’ALONZO 1993; NUNN-THOMPSON and SIMON 1989; PRIGNOT 1989; SACHS 1991; SACHS et al. 1994; SACHS and LEISCHOW 1991a; SCHWARTZ 1987; US DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES 1988). The present review will differ somewhat from these in that it will focus on promising medications and areas of future research.
