Ah sorry for not being clearer, I just was talking about Chantix in particular being something that required a prescription
But I'm actually not positive that it's proven it helps you quit. Here's an excerpt from a paper I was reading the other day "The study [21] of the effect of "real world" ENDS use on the population quit rates among 1284 U.S. adult smokers showed that the adjusted odds of quitting smoking were lower for those that used ENDS at baseline (9.4%) compared to smokers who did not use ENDS (18.9%). Smokers who used ENDS daily at some point during the study period were also less likely to quit smoking than nonusers (AOR = 0.17)."
My notes are kind of messy but I think it's from this meta analysis http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/356561555100066200/pdf/E-Cigarettes-Use-and-Taxation.pdf http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/356561555100066200...
I actually am a bit confused on the NHS' stance actually - they came out strong on this but many other agencies like the WHO seem to be taking much more of a wait and see approach
