(OPEN):
WHILE NEW-YEAR'S IS THE MOST-POPULAR TIME TO TRY QUITTING SMOKING, THE
MAJORITY OF SMOKERS WHO TRY AND QUIT AT NEW-YEAR'S RESUME SMOKING, IN
LESS THAN A WEEK. HOWEVER, ACCORDING TO DOCTOR SAUL SHIFFMAN,
OF THE UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH, A RECENT STUDY HAS FOUND
THAT SMOKERS WHO USE THE 21-MILLIGRAM "NICO-DERM C-Q" PATCH,
EVERY DAY FOR THE FIRST THREE WEEKS OF TREATMENT, SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE
THEIR CHANCES OF SUCCESS...
(SHIFFMAN):
"QUITTING SMOKING CAN BE ONE OF THE MOST-IMPORTANT THINGS THAT A
PERSON CAN DO, TO IMPROVE THEIR HEALTH--AND ONE OF THE HARDEST.
USING THE 'NICO-DERM C-Q' PATCH, HOWEVER, CAN BE A HASSLE-FREE APPROACH
TO QUITTING--AS SMOKERS ONLY NEED TO APPLY IT ONCE A DAY. OUR NEW
RESEARCH SHOWS THAT SMOKERS WHO USE THE 'NICO-DERM C-Q' PATCH TO QUIT
SHOULD USE IT EVERY DAY; PEOPLE WHO DO SO ARE THREE TIMES MORE LIKELY TO
KEEP FROM SMOKING AGAIN, IN THE LONG TERM."
(CLOSE):
BY STARTING A QUIT-ATTEMPT EARLY, SMOKERS CAN AVOID THE PRESSURES OF A
NEW-YEAR'S RESOLUTION--AND BE ON THE ROAD TO SMOKE-FREE BY JANUARY 1ST.
TO HELP THEM GET STARTED, "NICO-DERM C-Q" IS OFFERING SMOKERS A NEW
BONUS-PACK--WHICH OFFERS A FREE WEEK OF PATCHES DURING A SMOKER'S FIRST
STEP OF THERAPY. FOR MORE INFORMATION, VISIT
